Need help selecting stones

Hi!

I'm looking to beef out my collection of stones. I have a Tawa combination stone #1000/#3000.

I got a cheap set of stones off of amazon (400/1000 and 5000/8000), but those were soft and likely lower grit. Did a decent job though. A couple of weeks ago I went to a sharpening class with my mother and have since given her the amazon stones.

So now I need to complement my collection with a lower and a higher grit stone. I've been looking at Shapton glass 500 and the Rockstar #500 or Shapton pro #320 (buying from my closest online store they're all the same price).

I am more unsure about the higher grit stone. There's king, shapton, and naniwa stones in the store.

So looking for recommendations on lower and higher grit stones to complement my 1000/3000. Have been reading a lot of recommendations on here, but somehow still at a loss as to what to actually get.
