Moving coil with a bit less leading edge


I'm interested in a moving coil cartridge that offers a little less on the leading edge, and perhaps a bit more on decay or the trailing edge. In other words, something a little easier on the ears without sounding noticeably blunted or dulled. Thanks for your suggestions/impressions.

When compared to? What are you currently using that is a bit too transparent/lean for your tastes?
Benz cartridges are excellent and musical - The more you spend the better is the cartridge
Hey John...I had been using the Dynavector XV-1S with my
former SME IV.Vi tonearm, but quit when the suspension
collapsed. I replaced the XV-1S with a Dynavector XX-2,
which despite being over $3000 less than the 1S, sounds
amazingly similar to it. I've since moved to the TW Acustic
10.5 arm(with Raven One table). The SME's relative
mellowness, along with my slightly dark sounding, older VPI
HW-19/early Mk 4 platter, melded pretty well the Dynavector
sound. Compared with the SME, the 10.5 has a relatively more
neutral and more dynamic sound. Along with my revealing
Dunlavy SC-4 speakers, the Dynavector and 10.5 sound fairly
similar in terms of brilliance and detail. I would prefer a
cartridge that has a slightly more refined quality which I
feel would provide a more desirable synergy for me. Without
elaborating, it must also be of low output; i.e., .3
millivolts or less, which narrows the field considerably.
So...any suggestions? Thanks Stringreen. I just saw your
recommendation before posting my response to John. I do like
the Benz sound, and of course will give it serious
consideration.
