Cartridge recomendation for Garard 301 and Ikeda IT-345CRI

Please recommend a cartridge for this set up. Budget is 2k range.

I like the "smooth with detail" types. Big and bold is good. Some interest in Ikeda and Miyajima cartridges.

I understand a SUT may be necessary.

Thanks.

I was looking for a cartridge for my 301 recently and the Kiseki cartridge interests me, might be something you'd consider. I ended up with something more affordable but got the warmth and detail I was looking for. Let us know what you end up with.

The above recommendations are good. Depends on your budget. If your looking for a more affordable option, my Ortofon royal N spu sounds really good on my Ikeda it407.

Higher end Koetsu.
The tonearm begs for low compliance.
