What cartridge on your VPI prime?


I own a VPI prime, I installed a denon 103 R and I had never change the cart due to lack of funds. Now I want to upgrade my analog ring to the same level of my digital.
I have been considering based on reviews.

1- ortofon quintet
2- charisma MC2
3-ortofon black
4-kiseki blue.
5- rega alpheta 2.

I would appreciate any inputs from your end about cartridge selection and phono associated currently I am using graham slee reflex M.
Kind regards and thank you.

I use a Haniwa Cart with a matching Haniwa Phono EQ and my table is quite similar to yours. It is a VPI Super Scoutmaster but with a Prime Motor and prime 10inch 3D Printed Arm and the 3D Tonearm base and I had a custom made pair of ultra ohm ic cables and I'm pretty excited about it. Good luck with your choice! Get the best cart you can afford. Not the most expensive but the best quality which is usually the most expensive and it will make your table what it is.,
