La Platine tonearm help needed.

Hi,

Need some help from analog novice here

Could anyone tell me the model of this tonearm and cartridge?
It looks like a Schick and Sony(?) cartridge to me. It also looks like Ortofon stuff

What kind of phono cables should I go for this tonearm? Regular pair of RCAs or one singled ended?
Any recommendations for phono cables and cartridges for this arm?

Thank you in advance

Actually it also came with a Moerch board, so I have that as well.

Analog is far more difficult and complicated than I thought but it's also very fun to learn. Thank you. Reed also looks nice. Also realized the analog will cost a fortune and it could be endless :)

If you don't have the table/arm yet note:
The Schick arms come with either a din output OR bound cables with rca termination. You will see what you have when it arrives :)
What cartridge do you plan to use?

Aha..I plan to purchase the Ortofon SPU classic GE mk2 stuff.
I found some comments on this stuff from the Audiogon La Platine forum somewhere and it meets my budget under 1K.
