Need help on cartridge recommendation, under 500.

I've been a long time fan & user of the excellent Audio-Technica AT-ML170 moving mag. cartridge, but...what else, am searching for perhaps more detail & smoother mids?

I'm currently using a Well Tempered "Classic" (latest version) with the outstanding B.A.K. P5 all tube phono stage.

Any & all recommendations for moving coil/magnet under $500. would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

used Benz Glider ~$350-450, used Dynavector 20xl or 20xh. always prefere a local pick up with my pocket microscope for these purpouses.
If you want brand new only you can get Grado Sonata MM cartridge with low output, new Dynavector 20xl or 20xh will be a little more than $500.
