Cartridge for Thorens TD-160

I just bought a solid looking TD-160, my first foray in vinyl in about twenty years. It's all stock, including the arm. Anyone have any suggestions for good, reasonably priced cartridge? $2-400 range? Anyone ever use a Sumiko Blue Point Special on one of these things? Shure carts seems popular too. Thanks

So I just can't win with this turntable deal. I've missed - I think - three TD-160s here on A-gone. I finally get one on e-bay, confirmed, paid for and ready to go. So what happens? I get an e-mail from the seller that while packing it to ship, he dropped it and destroyed it. He did give a very prompt refund, but good gravy!

See. You try to break bad habits - like too many four letter words - by using quaint phrases like 'good gravy' and the next thing you know you've started a 'so close, but no lumps' debate.

Still one of these %$^@#! days I'm gonna get my @%&#! turntable!
