>>>Is the 17D3 a step up from my Dynavector 10X5/soundsmith retip ?<<<

can't say what the retipped 10X5 accomplishes but the 17D3 is about 2-3 full steps above the standard 10X5.more resolution,more nimble,more tuneful,have greater presence, more accuracy,more powerful dynamics,better tonal contrasts & color, more spaciousness,blah,blah,blah. you get the drift.

>>>Does the 17D3 have any advantages over the XX-2? <<<

primarily in speed and articulation. however, they exhibit somewhat less transparency & air and are much more difficult to achieve tangency with than the XX2. the 17D3karats with their lower output and high resolving powers also place greater demands on the phono preamp's quality.get them set up spot-on and driven properly and they're amazingly rewarding musically and are exceptional values.
