Lyra Atlas compared to Lyra Titan i


Some days ago I made a comparison, in the same System, same Arm, same Headshell, same cables ....
It was quite interesting :-)

Lyra Atlas

Lyra Titan i

... to make a long story short:

Both are very good cartridges, but the Titan still amazed me
[Even after all those years].
The differences are in the tonal preference what the Listener likes to hear, for example the sustain of instruments (Atlas) or the linear reproduction of voices (Titan i)

Yes, the Olympos may be the one for you, but it is no longer available. I read somewhere that J Carr thinks the Atlas is his best cartridge to date.
So you are writing that to get an Olympos, one must buy a used Parnassus
somewhere, somehow, extract the magnets and then send them to Lyra and
wait for a new (with used magnets) Olympos to be built. OK, I sit corrected: The
Olympos is still available.

What would this cost and is it more or less expensive than the readily available
Atlas?
