Brighter, livelier than benz lp

I got a benz lp a few years ago. In my system i always felt it has sounded a bit dull in the treble and heavy in the bass, especially on poor recordings.

Any suggestions for something brighter, leaner and cheaper to go with an Avid Acutus and SME iv?

Thanks Doug! I have reduced VTF and increased VTA as cart was riding low at back. I'll have more time to experiment at weekend... But, so far so good.

Thanks again folks for your help...i

If it doesnt work I am using a Benz Gullwing with Avid Sequel and sme V arm. Loaded at 47K, sound is open, lively, and not even close to dull.

Thanks, Musicfile

I write and negotiate legal mumbo-jumbo... just a glorified typist.
