Benz LP vs. Dynavector XV-1s

Johny is right. I heard in my friend's system the Benz LP which is very full and rich sounding. I currently own a Helikon that is fast and quite detail. I also believe it is not in the same league as the LP. Depending on your system and taste, either the Benz Ruby H or the Helikon is good. I personally like speed and detail and the Helikon has not disappointed me.

By the way, I am now selling the Helikon. Drop me an email if interested. Thanks.

Jtinn,
Have you tried or experienced the Dynavector XV-1s on a Graham 2.2? Thanks.

downunder,
Thanks for sharing your experience with these cartridges. It seems more people prefer the XV-1s.

Sirspeedy,
You meant there is a newer Titan out there. How do we tell the old one from the new? Do they say MK II or something? Thanks for sharing your opinion.

I really appreciate every opinion you all provide in this thread. I want to get a general consensus about what people feel about the Benz LP and the Dyna XV-1s.

Please be nice to each other. Audiophile community is such a small social circle. At the end of the day, we just want to have fun. Thanks again.

I agree that people in the business should disclose their interest before giving their opinions. I am glad that Jtinn did.

They both are very good cartridges. I personally own a XV-1s. IMO, if you system is already very full sounding, I would go for the XV-1s. Benz LP tends to be a bit on the thick side (I heard in my friend's sytem). So the Benz may be a better match with a leaner sounding system.
