what type of cartridge/ stylus should i buy

I have a Dual 721 direct drive (I bought new in 1979)that I just had refurbished and thinking I need to replace my Shure V15 type3 with a new cartridge. I don't want to over spend because I don't have a super high end system but here's what I have, my receiver is a Mcintosh MHT200 and I'm using a Bellari VP130 phono stage with KEF XQ surround speakers with a 12" Sunfire sub. I'm just getting back into vinyl so any suggestions would be appreciated....thanks

Shure m97xe vintage sounding cartridge for vintage sounding table. It should work well with your arm and it actually sounds nice. Oh, and it can be had for less than $75.

I would replace the stylus assembly; that is one heck of a fine cartridge!

Get a Jico SAS stylus for the V-15.
