Lyra Lambda Atlas/Etna


i currently play multiple cartridges; within my system, my go-to cartridge (vs LPS, XV1S) ends up being my Transfiguration Proteus which has a fair amount of life left.  I am debating sitting tight or can anyone please provide insight if they have ever compared a Proteus to the Etna or Etna Lambda?  I recognize Atlas is in a different swim lane, but any comparisons there?  I am currently running an ARC Ref 3SE phono- Thanks

Regarding Allaerts specifications. Those are public information with

''physical assumptions'' . That is to say that experiments under the

same conditions should deliver the same results. If those are not

''the same'' than the claim is not true. The scientific ''truth

values'' are two:  either true or false (tertium non datur).

The ''argument'' of different test records avoids ''the same conditions''.

Are ''different records'' not available ?

Set theoretic paradoxes are caused by ''to large universe'' ( aka

''universal statements'') say : ''set of all sets''. So by using universal

quantifier ''all'' one need to restrict domain of his reference, Say ''all

carts that I have heard''. 

@mijostyn, if you contact Johan about the availability of the Colibri you might also inquire about a sample of MSL Hyper Eminent he had on offer. This was a special version with ruby cantilever supplied by MSL (regular Hyper has aluminum cantilever). Might be just what you’re looking for, perhaps it’s still available.

Dear @jcarr  : " I didn't try to play the F1 nude, as the coil impedance is high enough that taking the shielded case off may be a disadvantage in some urban environments...""

 

You are rigth and that's why J.Allaerts is against that " nude " fashion.

 

I have not a problem with ( fortunatelly ) and I think that you need to test it because I listen a benefit. I think that he square cartridge body in the Allaerts cartridges develops standing waves or other kind of resonances against the quality sound. I'm not sure about this, you need to test it and is easy for you that are a true expert about.
