LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING

Hi, yes, until they break-in at about 100 hours. I've had two. The Hana sound signature is quite different to begin with.
Warm, musical, safe, whereas the 'overachieving' Delos is linear, resolute, revealing, etc. Depending on the associated partnering equipment (phono stage, interconnects) this effect may be magnified. Good luck.

If you can lower the shaft of the tonearm in it's base a bit and see if that helps.

I've had to set it at 47r loading to try to tame the extra treble energy and shrillness. Still doesn't work. This Cartridge is going on Audiogon for 500 bucks. Never again LYRA.
