Soundsmith - Hyperion vs lyra ETNA

I’ve not heard the EMT 6, but I would have thought from what I read that it’s not really in the same class as the Lyra Etna. Also not really the same price category either. 
I recently we through some exploration on cartridges including the Etna. I started with the Koetsu Onyx Platinum, then Koetsu Urushi Black, then Lyra Etna SL. I also listened extensively to the Air Tight PC-1 and non-SL Etna, and several Clear Audio cartridges. 
While I had the Onyx Platinum ($10k) on for a while, when I switched to the Etna SL ($10k) it was a huge step up. The SL has texture and detail that seems to surpass anything under $10k and lost nothing in mids sweetness to the Koetsu. Also, the Lyra tracks way better than any other cartridge I tried. This was especially important for orchestral music.  

You are right. The EMT is not in the same category. That is why I'm looking to upgrade. I know the soundsmith and the Lyra are the next level. I'm more looking to see about the character. If the EMT had a "next level" I think I would be moving up the line. The new SS Hyperion  Is the only thing I have heard that can give the ETNA a run. Would love to hear if anyone has xp with both.

what’s the sound you’re looking for? There are lots of great cartridges in this range including the ones I mentioned. What’s the rest of your setup?
