750 US MC cartridge options

I amthinking of upgrading to an MC cartridge in the <750 US price range,I am familiar with the Denon 103R (great cart to my ears) but there are some other options from Zyx, used Koetsu Black or Sumiko which I also found interesting.

I will kindly appreciate your comments/suggestions of options you might consider based on your experience, please check my system below.

Flg2001:

Did you ever get a chance to audition these cartridges?

The ZYX Bloom is < $500 from SoraSound (Audiogon dealer and the North American importer). I don't remember what the next model up is or what he sells it for, but it might be worth asking.

It's certainly worth contacting Mehran if you're considering a ZYX. There isn't a nicer guy to deal with on the planet.

well - just a quick note to mention that I bought a Dynavector xx2 MC cartridge (very low output).

I am in heaven!

Thanks for your feedback
