What is the best Dynavector MC cartridge - why?


Ok, I been reading a lot of good things on Dynavector MC Cartridges. I'm not clear which is the best regardless of price or which is the best value.

Given the best Dynavector MC money can buy today would you choose it over the Air Tight PC-1? You can only have one.

I've owned every Dynavector cart since I re-entered the vinyl world a few years ago.
In terms of absolute performance , the XV-1-S is " the best", although it is quite difficult to make blanket statements like that IMO. The 2 carts in the Dyna line that perform at a level above their price tags are the 20XL and the Te Kaitora Rua. In the absolute performance vs price argument , the TK Rua is very hard to beat.I still own this as well as the XV1-s, and still derive great enjoyment from it.Sorry , I can't compare with the Air Tight ( I've not heard this).
Cheers,
