Stepping up my cartridge

So I've hit the point in my audiophile "addiction" that I've decided to make a big step up in my cartridge. Currently I'm running a sumiko oyster on a pro-ject 1 Expression III through a grado PH-1 preamp and a Linn Classik receiver. Having recently scored a job with an amazing grado hookup I'm naturally attracted to their parts (hence the PH-1 and soon a set of RS-1's). That being said, I'm not averse to trying other brands if they perform better for what I'm looking for.

George, by Chestnut Hill Sound

George, by Chestnut Hill Sound

At some point during my time with George ($499), I lost a neighbor. The IT guy who sat in the cubicle immediately outside my office suddenly wasn't around anymore. Weeks later, I learned that the music had been bothering him. It had been too loud, I suppose. Or there had been too much of it. I'm not sure. I started apologizing to people: "Sorry about the music. It's just that I've got this new radio in my office. It's a lot of fun. His name is George."

Mozart Late Symphs/Mackerras (Linn Records)!

Fantastic double CD of Mozart Symphonies 38-41 conducted by Charles Mackerras. Perhaps the finest & gutsiest account of the G-minor symphony I've heard this decade. And best of all, it's released by Linn Records, so you can purchase either CD/SACD or the Studio Master FLAC. Yummy!
