Cartridge Recommendation

Hi
I have a brand new VPI Classic 1 turntable and Chinook preamp. I am looking for the best cartridge for this combination.
I listen to mostly 60's jazz and acoustic rock.
Thanks very much for any advice......
Jeff

Low level ambient and spatial cues are well preserved and the Argo tracks beautifully the most heavily modulated grooves.
