The best tonearm for Lyra Helikon SL ?

Thank you Raul !
Fidelity Research is a mistery with this cartrige!

Romeo

Dear Porto: I prefer the 801 GST for that cartridge.

Regards and enjoy the music.
Raul.

Thank you very much for all of yours choices !
But the Fidelity Research arm 14, 24, 64 have a better price- they are not good for my Lyra? or Lustre 801 ? or SME 3009 II ?

Dear Romeo: I hope this can help you, IMHO all very good choicesfor your Lyra:

The small problem is the money. I have maximum 1500$ to spend.Fidelity Research FR-14 is good ? or FR-24 ? or FR-64 ?

Dear Romeo: As always is system/ears dependent. I agree with the ones that are in favor of the SME IV/V.

Is there a better match?, maybe but the SME is a " safe " one.

Regards and enjoy the music.

I use a Helikon on a Trans-fi Terminator linear air bearing arm. Sounds much better(and cheaper) than this cartridge mounted on my prior Graham 1.5tc and SME IV.

I'm running the same as Jfrech...Skala mounted on the latest Tri Planar and it is a great combination. I previously had the Skala on an Ekos mk2 and it astounded me as to how much of the Skala I wasn't hearing until I installed it on the Tri Planar.

I think you're best choices here are the SME IV.Vi or V, a Graham Phantom...then maybe a Tri Planar.

Do a search on these arms...you find a few thread discussing Lyra and SME/Graham as the best choices.

I am running a Lyra Skala with a Tri Planar VII uII with great success...
