My Sota loves a Clearaudio Aurum Beta S.
However, in the range of a Blue Point(I've used the blue point special, not the EVO), I would take a Goldring over it any day. The Sumiko was overly smooth to me and lacked some detail. What do you have for a phono pre also? If it's built into a receiver or pre then that may limit the quality of what you want to spend on the cartridge.
