A sound between the Blue Point Special & Virtuoso

I have tried a bps and found it a bit "thin" or "bright." I bought a Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood and find it horribly "muffled," as if it had a serious congestion due to a cold. Will someone recommend a cartridge $1000 or below that has a sound somewhere between "bright" and "congested?" I am thinking of a Shelter 501 or perhaps a ZYX 100? Thanks for any help that may pe posted.

Hi Yohjo,Buster66,
I have a shelter 501 and to me it sounds better than my old Vandenhull Frog.
Here is a cool site you will like. Discussed are the best cartridges, including the 501,901,ZYX.
