Best Koetsu for SME V

I tried a Urushi with SME 20/2 & SME IV.Vi (with damping trough). Glorious sound with classical, but still have a bit problem with sibilance on hot-cut vocals.

I dislike the warmth of Koetsu's generally, but the stone bodies are far closer to neutral than the wood bodies. More dynamic too.

I heard a Jade and a Tiger Eye on an SME V a couple weeks ago, both were platinums I think. Not as neutral as I'd prefer, but they both sounded terrific (especially the Tiger Eye). Both sounded much more alive than the owner's previous Benz.

They might sound even better on a heavier arm, but there were no sonic problems of any kind.

My $.002...

The Onyx platinum would be my choice.
I sold both my SME V5's & am now using it with my 12" Da Vinci Grandezza - It's much more resolving & dynamic than the Urishi - You do get what you pay for.

Thanks Guys, i forgot to indicate that 80% of my listening is Jazz music. If this makes any difference. TT is a Sota Cosmos III.
Sly.
