A cartridge with more bite, please and thank you

I unfortunately have not heard those cartridges, though I've heard a number of Soundsmith cartridges up to the Voice, and I like the higher-end ZYX. Maybe the ZYX has more bite, but I don't think I'd characterize the others to have much.

For a dynamic sounding cartridge that maintains musicality in similar price points, I would probably recommend looking at a Dynavector XX2 MKII. That said, my favorite cartridge under $5K is the $1500 Audio Technica ART9 or ART9XI. It's the most well-rounded, but still on the warm side of neutral with great bloom. The XX2 definitely is more punchy and has more bite in comparison.

I now use a My Sonic Lab Signature Gold and am very happy with it. Maybe I'll step up to the platinum at some point.

I had the SL and felt the same way. As mentioned above I now have an AUDIO TECHNICA - AT-ART9XA which is very revealing in all frequencies. I wound up buying the Umami Red but haven't felt any urge to swap it out. Using an Acoustic Signature Triple X and Modwright 9.0X and the AT cart is definitely a keeper!

Actually you might want to consider changing the arm. I have had several Alphasons ( HR100S )  - they are very smooth by nature. Outstanding arm, but if you want more punch you might be better off with a Linn arm.

With regards to the Soundsmith Paua - I know this cartridge well - its very smooth - probably not going to give added punch.

The Dynavector XX2mk2 mentioned above is quite punchy in the bottom end.

I forgot about the ART9's! Thanks, @blisshifi  /  @audiosaurusrex. That seems like my wheelhouse. Looks like ther are some ART9's still to be found. I'll have to look into the difference between the XA and XI.
