Orchestral music requires superior tracking, and none of the Empire carts is good tracker. You should invest $200-300 in a good cartridge. Shure V15VxMR and Ortofon OM30 is what comes to mind first, or one of the vintage Audio Technica (AT14S, AT15S, 8008, AT160ML, AT170ML), or vintage Shure V15, or vintage ADC XLMIII. Cheap cartridges not only mistrack in the loud orchestral passages, but they damage those hard-to-track passages.
