What should my next cartridge be?

Currently running the Hana SL MC cart. I love it but think I’m ready for something new... I’m looking for something with great all-around performance like the Hana. Thought about going up to the Hana Microline but also open another brand. 
Here’s the rest of my system: 

Clear Audio Concept Turn Table

Herron Audio VTPH-2a Phono Stage

Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum II integrated power amplifier 

Bowers and Wilkins 805 D3 stand mount loud speakers

REL S/510 stereo subs

My pleasure entirely.  If the choice for any prospective buyer comes down to these two I feel it's pretty much impossible to make a wrong turn.

I just heard a Mu-Tech Hiyabusa and was very impressed. Compared it directly with the top of line Hana and it wasnt even close. To be fair the Mu-Tech is more expensive I believe.
