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 consider myself with a wider range in music taste than average. From Motown years to Adele. Classical, jazz, rock 80s, some R&B, Opera etc. That's why I need to take time to choose the cart since I don't own two tonearns or pocket for several cartridges. Realistic here.
Thank you 
I do like to smile just can't afford that cartridge so why to waste time spoiling my journey. And I  don't listen to gear I can't buy for a simple reason. It Will not allowed me to enjoy what I own anymore.

How is the VAS Nova sound related to the ortofon Quintet and Charisma MC2?
Guys I really appreciate the time you are putting into this discussion.
