Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood


I have about ten hours on the cartridge, which is connected to the VPI Scout and JMW 9 tonearm. Just changed from Dynavector 10x4. The Clearaudio sounds a little harsh, especially on vocals. Midrange seems to be lacking a certain sweetness that I know is on some of the albums I am playing (e.g., CSN). Played around with the VTA and didn't help as much as I would like. Any suggestions, or should I just expect improvement as cartridge breaks in?

Did the cartridge change its stripes significantly for you after 40 hours? Did the midrange get more involving, etc.?
