Looking For More Detail

My current setup is a VPI Scoutmaster JMW9/Dyna 20X S.V. 1mv output, I am looking for more detail. What cartridge may be the answer?

I had some Shelters before which are nice, but I think ZYX beats the Shelters at equal price points. I'd try the cheap/free adjustments first though. It sounds like you have a decent cartridge already.
