Interesting. I find that the gain of my MKIII works fine with a low output Dynavector DV-20XL. Fully driving amps occurs around 2:30 with most records.

My Shure M97xE does sound a bit rolled-off in the frequency extremes. Though, I wouldn't describe it as harsh sounding at all when everything's adjusted right. To me, it's the most accurate cartridge I've tried so far (I stay in about the $100.00 range). Though, I have not yet tried an Ortofon and probably will someday. I've heard many good things about them.
One thing I can say about the Shure is that a few of my records even used to skip when using other cartridges. Now, I forget which ones they were.
