static Issues...anybody know why?

I may try removing the plastic cover and going nude.

You might want to try an accessory grounded sweep arm that trails the tonearm as closely as possible. 

tzh21y, static is caused by rubbing, the stylus rubbing the groove. I can't see how an Ortofon stylus would rub a groove a whole lot differently than the Lyra stylus. The size of the stylus and the tracking force might make a difference. But, what is probably happening is the naked metal body of the Delos is probably grounded and is discharging the record as it goes. If you can get the room absolutely dark and use loops you might even be able to see little sparks jumping from the record to the cartridge like a mini Van de Graaff generator. 
All the devices and sprays that discharge the record are not much help because as soon as you start playing the record static electricity is generated and dust starts flying to the record. Just like the Lyra you have to discharge the record while it is playing. Get one of these,

It will also sweep any incidental dust out of the way. A little finicky to set up but once it is you don't have to touch it. I have a felt pad carpet taped to the turntable and give the brush a clean before each play.
If the brush stops tracking well just clean it with alcohol and it will bounce right back. If you use this and a dust cover your records will stay pristine forever.

So I took the cartridge cover off. Its better but its still there.

Huh? I always thought static electricity was produced by the vinyl record rubbing against air molecules as it spins. Also static electric charge is often transferred to the vinyl from the sleeve when withdrawing the record. Anti-static fluids and brushes can be used on vinyl. Nordost has one for audiophiles, some store bought sprays or towelettes are OK, too.
