Soundsmith - Hyperion vs lyra ETNA

I am have a EMT 6.0 cartridge. I'm looking to jump up. Maybe... The EMT Is a great player on my Brinkmann Oasis. smooth realistic and a heap of soul. I have had alot of great moments with it. If I do jump up it will be one of these 2. Does anyone have experience with both of these? I have heard the lyra quit a few times. I know what it does and it does alot well.  I feel like lyra is alot like ARC. Ton of dynamic and clarity, but missing a tad of texture and touch. EMT was my yin to my thoughts on lyra.
Soundsmith I got one good listen at RMAF last year and it really sounded to be great, but I was with ALL gear I dont know.. but ita kinda sounded like it just got out of the way..

My apologies for reviving such an old thread....

I was just curious if you stayed with the EMT cartridge or have moved on to something else?  If so, what did you end up getting?

Did you ever find out what the difference is between the Pure Lime and the Pure Black, other than color?

Thanks and best wishes to all,

Don
