LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING


Have had a Lyra Delos Cartridge for the last month and have any of you goners noticed a elevated treble, shrill thin bright sound from this Cartridge? I wish I had my HANA ML back. This Lyra sounds horrible!!!

What the OP is describing sounds more like a poor setup.  Tracking force too light, VTA way off, arm mass way too light.  

Nothing can fix a poor setup except improving to a good setup.  That's why there are turntable setup specialists.  
also, i have a $3k Herron ( FET and Tubes ) that is magic with a Delos….


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 pops on records) and is EXTREMELY detailed. Way too much detail. It's lean, bright and too harsh and shrill in my opinion. I have it surrounded by expensive equipment.  I think moving coils are overrated.  An Ortofon 2m Black will absolutely blow the Delos out of the water. I have it at 1.75 tracking force, VTA perfect.  Azimuth is done by eye, hard to adjust on a VPI CLASSIC TURNTABLE.  I just sold the plinius koru phono preamp.  maybe that was the problem.  A BAT VK P12 coming this week.  It could transform the Delos. I will report back.
