Then there was the Stereophile writer we had dinner with who thought Wilson was the top of the heap

….and I would agree. With all Wilsons limitations I sincerely feel that the big Wilson are the most interesting direct radiators loudspeakers. Also, Wilsons have the most industry supportive marketing strategy. Why a Stereophile writer would not support them if the writer’s industry was build around the glorification of the loudspeakers like Wilsons?

The other revelation was listening to the Dynavector XV-1.  Holy crap that is one fine cartridge.  I could not believe what it did with old vinyl.  That is, regular LPs from the 50 years ago.  That cart just ripped an unbelievable amount of information out of the grooves.  And from non-audiophile stuff!  It's best feature was the ability to keep everything in the mix separate.  Each instrument or voice remained completely separate from the others during playback.  Simply stunning.  Best cart I have ever heard.

It was the one with 8 coils? Yes, I heard a LOT of VERY good feedback from many people about this cartridge. Their arms is pure, their transformers suck but it looks like their top of their line cartridge are excellent.

BTW, what did you drive your speakers with?
