What New Cartridge should I get for my VPI?

I would appreciate any suggestions...

My husband wants a new cartridge for his VPI Scout turntable. He currently has a Grado Gold. He loves to listen to his music but lately he complains that the Grado sounds good but he knows there is still more to be heard. He loves female vocals and he complains that the Grado doesn't do them justice.

This is his current System:
VPI Scout w/JMW-9 tonearm
Grado Gold Cartridge
X-LPS v3 Phono Stage
Pass x-1 preamp
Pass 250 amp
Legacy Focus 20/20 speakers
vinyllace

If you don't want to change phonostage, get your husband a Sumiko Blackbird. Been throught the Grados and the Dyna's with the Scout and Blackbird takes the cake. Will work great with jazz, female vocals and just about everything else.
Good luck.
