Grado Sonata, I need help.

Hi everyone, i crave for the warm sound that most people said Grado Cartrige offered so I gave it a try but with no success the sound was bright, harsh, and alot of sizzle, i have two tables both used modified Rega RB-250, three cartriges and three phono stages to swap around i suspected the arms are not a good match has anybody experienced with Rega/Grado
your help is appreciated.

Hi everyone, I've tried everything changing cables, adjusted VTA up and down, aligned cartridge protractor, leveling, etc. the cartrige had more than 40 hrs. on it but i still get bright and harsh sound when i replace it with different cartriges like Aurum Beta-S and Shelter-501 the sound was warm full rich and smooth, I think i have a defective Grado. BTW my tables are Teres 245 and Trans Rotor Leonardo 40/25
