Need help for choosing cartridge for Thorens TD125

Hi:
I have a Thorens TD125 with SME 3009 series III arm.
I need some advices for a new cartridge. I am mostly listen to vocal and classical music.

Here are some cartridges that I am thinking about:

Shelter 201, Clearaudio Aurum Classic MM wood, Aurum Beta, Beta S, Benz Micro Silver and Ortofon 2M black.

Or do you think I should not spend too much for cartridge on this table/arm setup.

thanks
Edmund

Back in the days, I had a T-125 with a Stax arm and ran a stanton 681EEE. The SME 3009 arm mates very well with a 681EEE, also, and was a popular cartridge with that arm then.

For the price (149$), there is no danger in trying. It might be all the cartridge you need.
