high output cartridge for vpi scout


I have a vpi scout that's arriving tomorrow sans cartridge. It will play thru a creek destiny mm card. I've been looking at the dynavector 10x5, ortofon 2m black, grado reference sonata, rega exact. Any input? I listen to mostly 50's-60's jazz and blues. My wife's more into classical and 70'sish light rock of the early Hall and Oats, Bonnie Rait variety....So probably the more versatile the better.

Macdadtexas, sorry that I was not clear on my Soundsmith recommendation. I was not recommending the muy expensive strain gauge cartridges that do require an outboard box, but the Soundsmith moving iron cartridges, which are compatible with conventional phono stages and tonearms.
