Cartridge "upgrade" to Dynavector XV1T

I think the XV1T is brilliant with all the tone and dynamism styles that I want

I want an upgrade that has the same but more (not an alternative  "presentation")

Yes I know I should be satisfied ... and I am ... but ...... itchy ears that like to be scratched !

Have tried "buying to try" and not successfully in terms of finance and time and effort.

I have a Dynavector XT cart. I’ve owned 2 others. 
Great carts. 
My recommendation is to try the Etsuro Gold. It’s the best I’ve heard and own. 
Enjoy the music.

It sounds like you have a nice system.

I have a MSL Signature Platinum, but the Signature Gold is a little warmer, so either could be a good choice depending on your system and what you want for the sound.

We originally started with a MSL Sig Gold and then tried the Sig Platinum, both outstanding cartridges. As @jperry stated the Gold is slightly warmer and in my opinion a bit more musical, the Platinum more neutral and closer to the performance on the LP (although who knows what that really is).
