Soundsmith is a great suggestion, Dynavector also mates well with VPI. Being a Kiseki owner, I would take that off your list as it would put you back into arm matching challenges, IMHO.
Looking for a New Cartridge
I have a VPI Prime signature. I have a Koetsu black goldline and never thought it was a great match compliance-wise. I confirmed my suspicions when I purchased an Ortofon quintet black as an interim/backup cartridge. It really sings from top to bottom and was much easier to dial in, where the Koetsu required constant adjustment (don't ask me why).
I have the itch and am looking at the Ortofon cadenza Black (don't think Bronze because of my sonus Faber speakers), kiseki purpleheart and I was offered a deal on a lightly used air tight mc1 Supreme which I don't know too much about. Another suggestion was the air tight pc-7 which is impossible to audition.
Looking for suggestions/recommedations
Thank you all and have a great holiday.
