The Lyra Delos is the best cartridge I have heard in my system. My taste in music is similar to yours. I have used an Ortofon Kontrapunkt B, which is similar to a Cadenza. It is also very good for our type of music. I havent listened to a Benz Lp, but I have a Glider which is also quite dynamic. I dont think you could go wrong with either, but my choice would be the Delos.
Benz Ebony LP or Lyra Delos ?
For about the same money I am getting to buy a Lyra Delos and Benz Ebony LP (not LP-S) cartridge. I listen mostly to classic rock and Blues, so, tone, PRAT and dynamics are most important while soundstage accuracy and transparency can be compromised a little. Tonearm is a Basis Vector 4.
Lyra Delos is highly regarded in general while Benz LP was their top model before the LPS. Which of these would you suggest ?
BTW, I also have an offer on an Ortofon Cadenza Black for about the same money but not sure if it is suited for Rock and Blues.
