Grado Prestige Silver tracking problems...should I upgrade to Platinum?

Using a Dual 704 turntable. I think maybe the arm doesn't like the Grado Silver. Hearing a lot of HF breakup and mistracking. I could continue to fiddle with this cart, but some have suggested that the Platinum Wood Body is A) in another league as far as tracking and B) much happier on lower mass arms. I certainly hope that the Platinum isn't going to be less warm, thick, and rich than the Silver and I only say this because often times the higher end cartridges in a line are "more detailed" which I find translates to being brighter and thinner in many cases. Regardless, I'm asking for opinions regarding the necessity to and benefits of upgrading from the Grado Prestige Silver to the Platinum Wood Body.
