Cartridge "upgrade" to Dynavector XV1T


I think the XV1T is brilliant with all the tone and dynamism styles that I want

I want an upgrade that has the same but more (not an alternative  "presentation")

Yes I know I should be satisfied ... and I am ... but ...... itchy ears that like to be scratched !

Have tried "buying to try" and not successfully in terms of finance and time and effort.

You need an excellent SUT to bring out the best in cartridges. I had a ZYX Universe II X and always considered it an okay cartridge (using w ARC Ref 2SE phonostage).  However, when I got an EMIA Silver SUT, the ZYX turned out to be extra-ordinary - I couldn't believe how good it sounded.  Again, depends on your phonostage/system, but I now mostly use SUT's w low impedance carts.

In spite of the phono stage, you should get acceptable performance from the XV1T.

You should try a MY Sonic Labs. A friend moved from your cartridge to a high end ZYX, then MSL. I also have a MSL. Great cartridge.

I have a Dynavector XT cart. I’ve owned 2 others. 
Great carts. 
My recommendation is to try the Etsuro Gold. It’s the best I’ve heard and own. 
Enjoy the music.
