Lyra Kleos Repair


My sweater got hung on the stylus and I bent the cantilever on my Kleos,  It will play through both channels, but it's very distorted and sounds nasty.   Has anyone had repairs done on newer Lyra, and who should do it?


Thanks

So just to keep everyone posted on my saga with my 2 cartridges and Andy Kim's butcher job. He kept saying there is nothing wrong with the cartridges so I sent 2 pics of it hooked up to the meter. One shows 7 ohms as it should and the other shows zero. He now says he doesn't trust me that I'm hiding something!!!!  In the pics you can see the leads are hooked to the meter!  Just like jpjones said earlier in the thread, the guy has zero class and will take no responsibility for his actions. 

If I spent 3k+ on a cartridge,  I would want the manufacturer of the cartridge to do the work, you will essentially get a new cartridge back. 
Hi mdp,

You broke it.  Why is it a rip off if the repair is $1000 less that price of a new one?  That makes NO SENSE to get upset wth Lyra.

Again, you broke it!

Get over it and be a big boy.
mdp,
You had an accident and hoped that Lyra would show some appreciation for a customer and help out by cutting you a bit of a break.  They didn't and you are a bit upset.  Unlike "Mr. Mature" who says you should be a big boy, I think the cheap deal you were offered is offensive.

And to the poster above thanks for the heads up on Needledoctor.
A cantilever repair is a few hundred bucks. The other few hundred/ thousand are going to the Dealer, the Importer who want new profit for an already bought cartridge. They invest a lot of time and money for that, they have to rewrite the adress and need some new stamps.
Lyra itself has the minimum but there are "rules" ...
