LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING

In all seriousness, if you get your Lyra, whatever model (I own / owned Helikon stereos and monos, Kleos stereos and monos and an Atlas) dialed in correctly you will be rewarded hugely.

Having said that, alignment, VTF and VTA need careful attention. Small adjustments in any of those parameters are audible to my ears. Not everyone is up to that attention to detail. I am because I flat love what I hear. Having said that, I have complimentary synergy at work in my system. Lyras fit the ticket. They might not with a system already tending to bright.

@jcarr thx, will do. love my Delos btw.

My advice is to not even think about the Kleos until it can be made clear why the Delos isn't performing in your system.

If you spend even more money, and the bottleneck persists, you will be really upset (smile).

Have never owned a Lyra anything. But I have learned something from this thread. Jonathan Carr is a class act.
