Need cartridge recommendations for Rega P25

OK. So I just destroyed another cartridge and need a replacement for the Dynavector DV20 I trashed. A really nice cartridge but not reparable and currently too expensive for me to replace.
I've used Sumiko and Grado and am currently running a Rega Elys original(purple) - somewhat worn but gets the job done, for now - so I do not know how a new Elys would really sound.
Any recommendations on a good match for the table?
Any comments on the Rega Elys 2 or Exact?

Thanks for the help?

The Rega Exact 2 may not be the most popular choice here in Audiogonland, but it sounds wonderful as part of my P3-24/RB-301/TT-PSU set up. I understand that it mates beautifully with the P25 as well. Give it a try.....you never know, you may love it. Happy Listening.

I agree on the Exact 2. Also very easy to mount. 5 minutes and you will be enjoying the music.

I like the Goldring Eroica MC. Not too expensive and I think it's a good match for the Rega arms.

Thanks for the recommendations. I'll use it as a basis for further online research before i decide.

Any comments on the Dynavector 10x5?

I've recently installed an Ortofon 2m Bronze on my P3. I like it so far and to my ears it's better than the AT150MLX and Dynavector 10X5 I had previously.
