Possible Upgrade Advice


I have a Scoutmaster/Dyna 20X 1.0mv VPI version on the JMW9 arm, using a Rogue Magnum 99 pre, looking for a little more detail if possible. Any advice in the $1500 or less range?

Try a Lyra Delos cartridge and/or maybe get the Valhalla wiring for your JMW9 tonearm.
I have heard both Discovery and Valhalla, there is no doubt the Valhalla provides more detail. Now, whether you want more detail or more musicality is up to listener, just as with all cable choices. The OP seems to be looking for more detail.
Cool! Saved yourself $1500, and learned the importance of proper VTA/SRA set up all at once. Did you re-check the VTF? Changing VTA will affect VTF as well.
