I prefer the A mandolins and I play mostly Old Time, Celtic and hymns.
Any suggestions?

Not sure you’re going to find much difference between the Ky 950, a really good mandolin, and the others you reference. To be clear, those are terrific instruments. But if, and it’s a big if, your 950 is properly set up, you may have all you need.
Whatever you choose, play in good health!
