I currently have the Denon DL160 on the PUA-1600s arm of the PS8750. I was wondering if you guys would have a recommendation of another cart for this table. Budget is $300. Thx.
Cartridge for Sony PS-8750 recommendation....

The arm is medium mass so any modern cart will work well really. For the money the Denon's are pretty hard to beat and I don't think you'll get that much of an upgrade without spending twice that at least in the world of moving coils. The next step up is really the Audio Technica OC-9.
But you'll get much more of an upgrade spending the money on a newer tonearm like the Rega RB250 / 300 or latest '1' versions which have the same 237mm effective length (mounting distance) as the Sony so should be possible to fit.
