Recommended cartridge for Rega 3

I have been slowly upgrading a 2-channel system as retirement gift to myself and I am looking into the Rega 3 turntable. Right now I am using a Pro-ject Debut III with an acrylic platter and Ortofon Blue. The rest of the system is a Rotel RA1572 Integrated Amp and Monitor Audio Gold 200 speakers. Just looking for suggestions. Thanks

Buy Technics SL1200GR instead :)
For $1700 with better tonearm and great Direct Drive motor

I would recommend against the Rega P3.  The arm is so limiting in terms of its lack of easy adjustability (VTA and azimuth).  I think the Technics suggestions are a better choice for numerous reasons.

Hi,
P3 is a fine table for your system, Dynavector 10x5 (high output mc). 
Supplied Rega arm is a classic finely crafted and competes with everything even though some adjustments are missing (i would not care for azimuth too much).
