| Volume? There is alot of variation in how loudly LPs are mastered. I own around 9,000 LPs and play 4-5 LPs a day. Some records I have to really turn the volume knob up to get good volume and dynamics, and with others, the music just effortlessly jumps out... | |
| What to upgrade if at all Lyra Delos cartridge! | |
| Mint LP Best Tractor---HELP Well, alot has changed since I started this thread, and for the better. I ended up replacing my Dynavector 17d3 with a Lyra Delos, and forgot about the Mint protractor altogether and bought the Feickert protractor because of it's ease of use and s... | |
| Lyra Delos I've been using a Lyra Delos on my VPI Classic 1 for the past several months and I couldn't be happier, I can't believe how much more life the music has. I was previously using a Dynavector 17d3, I fine cart itself, but the Lyra Delos just takes e... | |
| Need recommendations for a Cartridge under $2K Another recommendation for the Lyra Delos. This cartridge has completely transformed the sound of my system (for the better, of course). | |
| New Delos cart After using a Dynavector 17D3 for 3 years on my VPI Classic 1, I upgraded to a Lyra Delos 2 months ago and I haven't looked back, I'm completely ecstatic and in awe of this cartridge. To my ears it has the same kind of neutrality across the freque... | |
| Simaudio Moon 310LP I've been using the Simaudio Moon 310LP preamp for several months and I love it. I upgraded from a Heed Quasar, which is a wonderful phono pre on its own, but the Simaudio is definitely a few rungs up the ladder--more detail, air, presence, life, ... | |
| Mint LP Best Tractor---HELP The first e-mail I received from Yip after I placed my order contained this instruction:"Note the Mounting Distance [spindle to tonearm pivot] of your tonearm is 259mm, you have to ascertain this is correct at your setup as it affects performance.... | |
| Dynavector XV-1S ---is it overkill for my system? Lanetim---I'm surprised that you felt that the Lyra Delos lacked excitement compared to the Dynavector 20X2 H, the Delos being a higher resolution cartridge, which would give you more detail, air and presence and a more transparent window to hear ... | |
| Dynavector XV-1S ---is it overkill for my system? Manitunc---I'm curious, what gain and load settings are you using for your Lyra Delos on the Simaudio? I'm using a Simaudio 310LP phono pre, which I'm really enjoying by the way. | |
| Dynavector XV-1S ---is it overkill for my system? Ah, so my subject thread is still alive...well, sorry to say this to the last person who posted, but I just ordered a...LYRA DELOS from Music Direct. So we'll see how it goes. Gotta admit, I'm a little nervous about it, I'm so used to listening to... | |
| New Lyra Delos Cartridge But what if your phono pre only gives you a choice of 100 ohms? Is that "close enough"? I'm considering getting this cartridge to replace my trusty Dynavector 17D3. My Simaudio Moon 310LP offers loading options of 10, 100, 470, 1K and 47k ohms. | |
| Duped again Tom Port, is that you? | |
| Dynavector XV-1S ---is it overkill for my system? Adamay---the thing is, I don't know if the Simaudio 310LP will be an improvement on the Heed, but I'm willing to take a chance to find out. Like you, I love my Heed Quasar, it's the best phono stage I've ever had in my system---BUT, my experience ... | |
| Dynavector XV-1S ---is it overkill for my system? UPDATE---last week I bought a used Simaudio Moon 310LP phono pre (with power supply) here on Audiogon to upgrade from my Heed Quasar, and I've been gathering up as much info as I can about the Dynavector XX2 mkII and Lyra Delos cartridges, to repl... |
