Sumiko Blackbird or Dynavector 20x for VPI?

I think I've come down to these two cartridges for my Scoutmaster. Both are winners and both seem do do really well with the table. Is there a reason to go with one over the other ... I'm having a tough time deciding. I know one of the differences is that the Dynavector has a line contact stylus. I'm not familiar with that so I'm not sure what the benefits might be.

Dear Gnuear: Both are very good cartridges but I think that the VPI special version Dyna is a better match that the Sumiko for your VPI TT/tonearm.

Anyway, the Dynavector cartridges have a great reputation for many years, this cartridge builder is not a " newcomer " and is very well respected. Btw, here it is a review on that Dyna cartridge:
