Cartridge for an old GRACE 707?

Question for the analog gang. I receintly picked up an old Oracle Delphi I with a Grace 707 tonearm. When it arrived the stylus on the original Grace F9 cart was missing.

I see a Grace 704 uni-pivot in the classifieds for $295.00. I am having a hard time finding much out about the Grace tonearms. Is the 707 a "keeper"?

Any feedback on the arm or suggested carts. is appreciated.

to whomever gave me negative wotes on my previous comments, why not act like a mature adult & tell me what i said that's untrue, or rude. or if ya yust disagree w/me, yer comments may be of some use to others, as well as to myself.

if i'm not mistaken, my grace 727, which came on my used oracle also, is wery similar to the 707. joe is rite - heavy cartridges don't mate too well w/these arms. my ~11-gram ortofon had me adjusting the counterweight past its end-stop to get it to track properly. while a good arm for lite caretridges, i ended up replacing mine w/an origin-live moddded rega rb250.
