Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

There's a school of thought with this hierachy.....

Turntable first, Arm next, Cartridge next.

In the retail world it is generally price driven, although you're not necessarily comparing apples with apples.

In the real world it's a question of synergy, what works well with what.

The goal is to get a turntable, arm, cartridge, and possibly arm - amp interconnect, possibly each from a different manufacturer to sing together. It can happen with the most unlikely combinations of gear.

The trick is finding a better cartridge that'll work with your table. If you are planning to upgrade the tt at some stage then there's no harm in taking a risk with the cart. Otherwise listen to what the other guys here advise, their better equipped than I am.

I understand your dilemma. Good luck.
