Ladok, sorry especially one responding earlier. But yes, I consider the Lyra as a house sound. I find they have a delicate revealing sound with over analyzing. Top to bottom I find them to deliver what is ever in the groove. To a point that I have experimented with adjustments and find that extraction increases as if the cartridge can read it, if the tonearm settings and cartridge alignment are correct. That said, I am sure this is with any cartridge, the full potential of a good cartridge is dependent on set up. Like the best tire can’t fully perform with bad alignment and suspension.
As far as the Lyra House Sound, you need to experience it to know if you will love it. Is there a Rega dealer in your area that sells Lyra. See if he is willing to set one up for you. Regardless of which cartridge he uses, you should get a feel for the sound Lyra brings to the table.
