Tonearm sugestion

Hi, I’m a first time poster and seeking suggestions for tonearms and cartridges for a luxman pd441 table (just purchased with a Sme 3009 s2 arm)
The rest of the system is Revel Ultima gem speakers, Rel t7i sub and Peachtree nova 300 (next planed upgrade)
Haven’t hooked up my system in 20+ years but decided in setting up my old equipment this past winter and found that my old stereo system is tired and needs updating. So I’m on the long road of doing lots of research and making mistakes.
Spent 10 years in my youth dj’ing and I realized my hearing is gone in the upper register, because of, it might be a futile pursuit in trying to seek Hi-Fidelity reproduction from my equipment.
Any and all suggestions welcome on the whole system.

thanks all

I got 121a luxman.. it sound awesome with fidelity research fr24. if you need a mid compliance. it's often said it's as good as the Graham phantom. and it's easy to install with luxman. and very reasonably priced. I love it and it's my favourite setup now. the detail and separation. texture, musical. naturalness is phenomenal. 

 cart with tracking force around 1.5-1.75ish will do great. I run signet Mc and,  epc 205 cii on it. 

3009.  will sound pretty good with Stanton 681  or grace  f9 or shures v15. however... it's hard to get it to good shape.. and a very manual tonearm 

just some of my experiences hope they help
