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

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" ...
I have not read through entire thread yet. Kleos is my third Lyra; best yet! My understanding is that Lyra does not rebuild ; Lyra gives you the best trade in and sends you a NEW Kleos.I have surfed this thread. My answer is: Take Care around expensive anything! Especially expensive cartridges !!! Lyra Sound is Lyra Sound!
