Dynavector 20 Xl , Benz Micro Ace SL or Denon


I am considering purchasing my first MC cartridge and am considering the Dynavector 20 Xl, Benz Micro Ace SL or possibly one of the Denon models. I am currently using a Rega Exact 2 MM cartridge on a Rega P3 with an upgraded RB 300 tonearm. I have an Arcam C31 with P1 monoblocks. I sometimes feel that the soundstage could be wider and more detailed. Would the move to either be justified? Thank you for your input.

I have owned a P25 and now own a VPI Scout. On the P25 I had an Ortofon MC2 and then upgraded to a Lyra Dorian. The MC2 to Dorian was a nice upgrade. But changing to the VPI was a much bigger step. I'm not saying that you should buy a VPI.
However I am sugesting that you safe your money and buy a better turntable. IMHO that will give you better bang for buck.

Have you tried using a seperate phono pre?

I think the list is:
1 turn table
2 phono pre
3 arm
4 cart
5 cables
