Suitable cartridge fore Schroeder reference arm


Help needed, anyone. Have an excellent Schroeder ref. arm with ebony wand. Am currently using an Ortofon Rhoman wich is fine but i think its damaged so i started looking fore replacement.
The more i read the more confusing it is. Here is my question: Since the ebony wand is heavy should i go fore heavy pickups with high compliance but moderate VTF say 1.5 grams or am i not thinking right. I listen to all kinds of music but preferably acoustic, jazz, R&B, classical but also rock. Maby difficult to find one cartridge that does it all.
The rest of my chain is Holfi (there top of the line) electronics so my riia is one that can handle any load.
Would be greatful fore suggestions and others experience with suitable cartridges for my arm.
best regards

i ran an zyx universe on a Schroeder Medel One, a fine combination. You want to keep the Schroeder adjusted to get the best out of it.
Re: the adjustment comment... I found that I needed to check vta on the Schroeder as my old loft goes through temperature and humidity changes regularly. The Schroeder One seemed influenced by the extremes more than the Tripanar. It is not difficult to do the checking and adjustment except that I am just lazy. The ZYX (and any great cartridge) can really sing when dialed in, and in combination with the Schroeder, you are in for nirvana. It is one of the great arms. Best of luck and enjoy.
