AirTight PC-1 supreme vs Dyn XV-1S

I've recently upgraded to the Kronos Sparta/Kronoscope RS table/arm from a VPI Scoutmaster Signature.  I've transferred my existing Dynavector XV-1S to the Kronos, which thus far seems to be fine relationship.  My question for those who have experience, would the AirTight PC-1 Supreme offer a significant improvement over the XV-1S?  I read many a favorable relationship bet. Kronos and AirTight, but then, I imagine there are many cart designs that would prove favorable on Kronos tables.

That's got to be a small sample of a very small sample on this forum.  (I am not aware of any regulars who own a Kronos of any kind, and if they are lurking out there, then a very small percentage of them will have auditioned both of those particular cartridges.)  Sometimes you've just got to bite the bullet and do your own evaluation.

What Stringreen said. Plus, it is a matter of your choice of tonearm to go with one cartridge vs the other.  The TT is going to do the same job (maintain constant speed, eliminate resonances, both to the degrees that its design permits) regardless of the cartridge.
