Dynavector XV-1s vrs Transfiguration Proteus

I am interested in opinions on these two carts. If you have heard them. Which is your preference and if possible your description of its sound character. What loading you prefer for either cart.

I owned the XV-1s and Orpheus twice each over the past 10 years.

Matched with the right tonearm both are fabulous.

However, I can't fathom the Orpheus sounding "blurry" in any comparison including any Zyx or vdH.
