weak vinyl playback.

Hi
Play back on my LP'S sounds very thin compared to CD's.I have been trying out some Stanton 400V3 and 500V3 high output dj type carts with interchangeable stylii..I have a Lenco heavy plinth deck,with an Audio Technica AT 1009 arm.I am using a Lehmann Black Cube phono,on the MM setting.

As this dj stuff is not ideal('cept for the 45's) and was an experiment I want to invest in a good lomc cart sometime soon,but I am a bit worried the problem may still be there.Spent lots of time making the deck,need to get this problem worked out.(1 pic)Tonearm has since been rewired in cardas wire and tonearm wire replaced with a profess.job both by Johnny at Audio Origami.

45'S with the 1 ml stylus fitted sound big and full.

BUT,the LP's'with the 400v3's/500v3's with D71ee hi fi stylus ,really don't make it.Nor does the AL500 stylus. No real power or bass.?Missmatch somewhere.

The DL 103r is long gone.Damn,I sold that for all the wrong reasons.

If anyone can help out with any advice I would really appreciate that.
Seems like I'm looking for that certain cart.A mate has suggested a Benz ace, a DL304 or a AT 33 ptg. Without being able to audition any,opinions help.I want a big full sound,weighty.Like, great on live music. Got to be powerfull.(I can't describe this sound stuff ha)y'know what I mean.
