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

Hi, much obliged for all the replies and good suggestions.
I haven’t received the deck yet (about 1 1/2 weeks away before it arrives)
To give a little more detailed description to what I’m looking for; I currently own an Audio Linear 4001 turntable with a Grace 747 tonearm and everything seams a little flimsy to me.
I like a well built mechanical thing that requires little maintenance after the initial setup/adjustments and is easy to use. Do not like products that are over engineered.

thanks again

Humm...I like the SME 4 in silver.
Once I receive the table and have a listen, will start a search for a SME 4 in silver, I think it will match well with that table.
The seller stated that the table was fully serviced by  “GLEN OAKS LABS,8749-257th ST, QUEENS NY” and has a warranty until august. Does anyone knows the reputation of this shop and should I get it rechecked?
