Cartridge for an old GRACE 707?

Question for the analog gang. I receintly picked up an old Oracle Delphi I with a Grace 707 tonearm. When it arrived the stylus on the original Grace F9 cart was missing.

I see a Grace 704 uni-pivot in the classifieds for $295.00. I am having a hard time finding much out about the Grace tonearms. Is the 707 a "keeper"?

Any feedback on the arm or suggested carts. is appreciated.

Hi, Dickens, your post takes me down memory lane (i.e. I've SEEN two Graces -- but can't quite remember one from the other). The wooden one (707?) worked well with the V den Hull MC10, MC20s; the Ortofon 10 & 30; Grado & Denon (but, model No??).
The Grace was playing (as I remember it), 1) on a Heybrook TT 2) on a Pink Triangle PTToo. I don't know about synergy with the Delphi so, can't comment. It was considered a good value arm at the time (early '80s).
Sorry I can't be more helpful.
Cheers!
