lush cartridge under $1500 used(?)


Can someone recommend a lush (rich sounding) cartridge OTHER THAN KOETSU to mate with a rega RB 300 tonearm? (I'm actually looking to upgrade the tonearm to an SME).  My table is an ancient SOTA star (version) 3 purchased in late 80's.  thanks.

unorthodox response but well under budget and worth the wait-
get a used dynavector dv20X2L - send it to soundsmith retippers for the ruby cantilever ($350).  
the sound is lush, detailed and extremely dynamic.  incredible.
