I've been using the Benz Ebony L cartridge for some time now and I believe it was the first S-class cartridge available in the USA.
No, it does not lean to the "brighter" hyper-detailed side. I will say that it is the most musically natural sounding cartridge I've ever used and that the level of transparency is exceptional.
It is, however, pretty finicky about the tracking force and the VTA setting, but once you get it right -- WOW -- you're in for quite a treat!
