Lyra Delos A truth teller or what?

My experience with the Lyra Delos has been good and to put it the best way too revealing?  So far my original vinyl sounds incredible, especially stuff from the Golden age of stereo.  Amazing to say the least.  However, newly remastered stuff sounds extremely overdone and in some cases unlistenable and I am talking about a lot of Classic reissues.  Is this just the way it will be or will this cartridge still relax a little as I only have roughly 50 hours or so on it?

Nkonor - i hope your kleos does not take as long to run in as the delos.  it was really frustrating to say the least but it sounds great now. Don't give up on it.

The boston audio design mat is great as and the Funk firm is ok as well.  the funk firm is a little thicker so it allows more VTA adjustablility. I wish the Boston audio mat was a little thicker for the Lyra.
