cartridge for Thorens TD 147 with TP 16 Mk III

Hi
What is a reasonable amount to spend on a cartridge for Thorens TD 147 with TP 16 Mk III tone arm ?
I think that turntable / arm combo deserves a cartridge of at least $200 and I am considering Ortofon 2M blue, 2M Bronze, Sumiko Blue Point 2. Definitely would like something with deep and full base, some sparkle , something different from Grado (too laid-back) but not bright and aggressive.
the phono pre-amp is EAR 834P
Any thoughts / recommendations highly appreciated?

high compliance cartridge for the low effective mass arm. the M91ED w/ SAS stylus is an outstanding suggestion.

let me also suggest a pro-ject speedbox II as a great upgrade for this table
