Soundsmith Zephyr vs Dynavector 20X2 ?


Does anyone have any first hand experience with these? It is the High output MC Dynavector 20X2 I'm referring to.
The table is a VPI Scoutmaster. Thanks.

I have used both in my VPI Classic. The Dynavector was very dynamic, but less refined than the Zephyr. The Zephyr recreates a deeper soundstage and is more neutral to my ears. I prefer the Zephyr on all types of acoustic music. The Dynavector gets a slight edge on loud rock, but that's all. My verdict: the Zephyr is the superior cartridge.
