Recommend a cartridge for the new Technics 1200

I am going to order the new Technics SL1200G.  What  cartridge would you folks recommend?  I will be using the phone stage of my McIntosh MA7900 (MC loading of 50, 100, 200, 400, 1000).  The speakers are Focal Aria 936's.  I am not a fan of bright sounding equipment, but I do want good detail and soundstaging.  I would like to keep the cost for the cartridge under $2000.  I am drawn to the Soundsmith line because they can easily be retipped but I have never heard any of their cartridges.
