What's been lost in this conversation is the subtle but (to my ears) significant changes that the XV1s has undergone in the last year - benefiting from the development of the XV1t.
I don't want to get into the better/worse discussion on these two obviously fine cartridges, but the person reading this is likely considering the purchase of a NEW cartridge.
Taken in that light, current XV1s should be the subject of this comparison (with the current A90).
Ultimately, one's preferences might be the same ... or not.
The usual dealer disclaimer warning applies.
Cheers,
