Ortofon Anna or Transfuration Proteus?

I am now using SPU Gold cartridge with Ortofron 309 tonearm and Garrard 301 turntable, together with a Bob's Device SUT to Shindo Monbrison preamp.

I am considering upgrading the cartridge to either Ortofon Anna or Transfuration Proteus, looking for higher resolution and separation, more dynamic and air, and better tonal colour. (...am I asking to much?)

Much appreciated for your input.

Thank you for your suggestions on Lyra Atlas. I would really like to have it but it's too expensive for me. :-(

Thank you all for your inputs. Much appreciated!

EBM, may I know which arm and phono stage you are using with the Proteus cart?

WRM57 thanks for your suggestion on the new SPU95. I have a few SPU already, so I would like to try something different thia time.

Hi sunnyboy1956, may I know if you have any problem with the Atlas matching your SUT? Is Atlas output at 0.6mV, much higher than Proteus and my SPU Gold?

Thanks Ebm, I am worried my high mass arm Ortofon 309 would not match Proteus too well. This is my only worry for Proteus. Otherwise I would have bought one already.
