Looking for tonearm inspiration

I just bought a used SME 20/12 turntable that is about 15 years old.  I also had a used 

Dynavector DRT XV-1s rebuilt/are tipped.  Odd as it may seem, there was no tonearm with the turntable.  I have yet to identify what the phono stage, but listening so far suggest a Sutherland Loco (still open to alternatives).  There must be many out there that have had experience with the SME 20/12 turntable and perhaps a few that have had experience with the SME/Dynavector combination.  Can you suggest a tonearm that had some magic for you with either bit of gear?  Wide range of music: Rock, Jazz, Female Vocal and a bit of Opera from time to time.

Rauliruegas, what exactly does, "a BS of design." mean? I think there is a slight language barrier here.


BTW mijo, Raul was referring to Ralph's amps with the BS design comment not the tonearms, so he certainly hates Ralph's amps too. I have a pair of MA1s which will remain with me as every other amp I have tested (with my speakers) it doesn't come close. This is OT of course.
I find this very entertaining, when I woke up 3am in the morning with no feeling to fall asleep again just go to the analog forum new threads and there you are all keeping me reading until the morning comes.
Have you listened to Ralph's amps Raul? @rauliruegas? I still read your posts which I consider interesting at times, just need to filter some things out.
I wish you all well.
