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?

I bet the Delos would be great on the Gyro SE

I use the Soundsmith EZ screws, comes with different weights so you have to experiment as it will affect mass and the position of your counterweight.
I found the right combination giving me an excellent RF results. I also track at 1.75g as this is where Lyra designed the cart to perform best regarding their New Angle design.
