Cartridge wars


I'm looking to change cartridges, and I'm looking for opinions on a $1000 +/- cartridge. Currently I'm considering the Grado Reference, Lyra Argo, and Sumiko Blackbird. My turntable is a VPI 19 Mk IV with AQ PT-9 and Bel Canto Electronics/phono stage. Opinions anyone?

If memory serves, I think Stereophile was embarrased by the flack surrounding their original review of that cartrdige, which was a rave by a reviewer later accused of having insufficent experience with cartridges to know what he was talking about. They've been bending over backwards with the Glider ever since.
