Cart Recommendations

There are two carts immediately come to mind with those sonic characteristics and that match well with VPI tables:
1) Ortofon Cadenza Bronze and 2) Soundsmith Paua.

The Paua will be a bit smoother but has a more realistic presentation with unbelievable detail retail.  The midrange and overall richness is anything but lean or lacking depth.  It has a richness and warmth that is very musical and inviting without sacrificing detail, soundstage, imaging,etc.  I had the Paua in my system for the last week (just received it) and just put it over for sale on numerous sites at a pretty discount.   I just want to explore other carts before deciding on one for the long term.   Another good candidate is the Cadenza Bronze, which will be warm and rich, have really good detail and dynamic, but I don't think it is up to par with the Paua.  There is a good review on the VPI forum of a VPI owner who had the Cadenza Bronze and then upgraded to the Paua, and the difference was not subtle.  May want to check the VPI forum anyways since there would be other owners with the TNT table. The Soundsmith would be my vote, but there are some other good performers that I may have not heard.  If you want any more details about the Paua, feel free to message me.  I ran it with my VPI Avenger and a 12" VPI 3d arm.   Best of luck.

Save yourself some money and go with the Audio Technica ART-9.  It has 0.5 output and costs $1100. from LP Tunes. 

Here's an entire thread on the ART-9:

Hope this helps you out.

OP

Hope you enjoy your allnic gear. I have an H-3000 and L-3000 which I really like. I am not sure of the output of the Clearaudio carts but I have found the da vinci v2 and stratavari v2 really good. Best wishes

Thanks for the suggestions so far!  I've looked into each of them and will try to audition the ones I can find locally.  Also, I really like the H-3000 and HA-3000 combo in my system. 

Has anyone had experience with the Kiseki Purpleheart NS?  That is another that has popped up that might be an option, as well.

As previously mentioned, check out the thread on the  Audio Technica ART 9. 
I have not read a negative review on this cart anywhere. 

Even HW has mentioned the ART 9 being a great cart. I'm guessing performance will be similar considering you have the Graham instead of the VPI arm.

If you're investing SERIOUS cash, 5K+, I would consider  the ART 1000, both  available at LP Gear.

At 1K the ART 9 competes with 3K+ carts. The 1000 should keep company with the 10K uber carts.
Since your phono has plenty of gain, The AT50ANV(another sleeper cart)  is very low output, and supposedly offers more refinement that the 9. Another "bargain" cart.
