LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING
I may not get the Hana back. it's cheaply made. the cantilever bent with a slight brush to clean the stylus. The Lyra is built a lot better. You could even probably do some DJ work with the Delos it's so well built. I just have to try to dial the ...

atmosphere, I had an Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 on the bottom of the 4a's. Your amps while sonic champions in the midrange, suck in the bass department.  I suggest you listen to an Audio Research engineer and start using a hybrid circuit in your am...

fsonicsmith, please return to listening to your 1990's NAD gear believing its high end. lol

HAHAHA, Very funny fellow goners. Now this is turning into a VPI bashing party. I say enjoy your cheap gimbaled tonearms with its horrible friction and lack of adjustments.  To do a gimbaled tonearm correctly costs a lot of money. You're not going...

I bent a cantilever on the Hana ML I had and it is either going to be repaired or replaced at the dealer.  I'm thinking of just trading that Hana AND the Delos in on a KLEOS. I am extremely picky of my sound and maybe the Delos is too low end of a...

fsonicsmith, I have forgotten more than you will ever know about high end audio. I have been in the hobby for not only 30 plus years but have sold the equipment in a high end store. I have sold VPI turntables and am proficient in setting up a unip...

As a matter of fact I hope some designer builds a balls to the wall Moving Magnet. Like a 5k dollar moving magnet. I'll buy it.

My ortofon 2m black blew the Hana and Lyra out of the water!!!  MOVING COILS ARE HIGHLY OVERRATED.. Tubes cannot have frequency extension like a transistor.  Mr Atmosphere, I sold your amps back in the 90's at a dealer in Southern California.  Had...

MC's are COMPLETELY overrated.   
LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING
Yes, I understand who J Carr is. I'm just frustrated my 1700 dollar purchase isn't giving the sound I expected. My analog now sounds digital. The Delos tracks beautifully, is the quietest cartridge I've ever heard(don't hear hardly any clicks and ...

I am replacing the Plinius Koru phono stage this week with a BAT VK P12. If a 8000 dollar tube phono stage can't make this cartridge sound good then it's not my 12k dollar Krell amp, it's not my 5k dollar Ayre preamp or the 5k in cabling. The Delo...

When I heard a Demo of the Delos it was on an all tube system.  Mine is solid state. There is the problem. I would not recommend this cartridge to anyone unless you have tubes which roll of highs and add body and warmth to the sound.

This Lyra set me back 1700 bucks. I've had 300 dollars cartridges sound better. New lesson learned, moving coils DO NOT sound better than moving magnets. BUT, the HANA ML I had was a nice sounding moving coil.  
LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING
lesson learned. a 2000 dollar Cartridge isn't always better than a 1200 dollar one. HANA ML is a giant killer!!! 
LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING
I going try to trade it back in on a HANA ML or ORTOFON CADENZA RED. The dealer told me how great the Delos is. NOPE.
