BEST TONEARM FOR HIGH COMPLIANCE MM

Dear 'gonners'

I have a lovely Pickering XSV 4000 MM cartridge. I understand this to be from the heyday of high compliance MM cartridges when the correct tonearm was lightweight etc.
As a result of this I have decided to have 2 arms on my turntable - one for this, and another for my Transfiguration Temper V
I already have a Moerch DP6 and am considering a light arm wand, but I was simply gonna use this for my Temper V.
Can someone recommend a tonearm from the heyday of light arms in the 70's that will be suitable - thanks

SME III w/ hyper stiff titanium-nitride very low arm mass of 5 g fits the fuzziest MMs, w or w/o fluid damping. This arm gets the best out of SHURE´s top dogs, and likely all other top MMs. Reasonable price. Looks very beautiful too.

State of the Art.
