Dynavector or Grado ?

I plan on purchasing the VPI Superscoutmaster and prefer to have the cartridge mounted by VPI before it is shipped to the dealer.
VPI will mount Dynavector and Grado cartridges ONLY as they are the 2 brands they sell.
Query...which is the better sounding cartridge?
The high end Dynavector lists for $4000 and the high end Grado lists for $2500.
I only listen to rock and roll music.
For reference, I have an Arcam FMJ pre amp. with a phonostage and Arcam FMJ mono amps.
Thanks for looking!

I have buyed a Dynavector 10X5 and I feel really satisfied with its musicality, detail and range. Sure the 20 is better but I didn´t pay the difference.
I´m convinced you don´t need to spend even 2500 for the cartridge if you take the risk of buy the 20X and spent the rest in music. Dinavector is really good cartridge with not to much money spent in advertising and "expert reviews".
Good luck
