lol. There was definitely something wrong with it. The H2 and the Ace both did the exact same thing, track terribly. The Glider works perfectly. I think I received bad stock. The frustrating thing is that I told my dealer right after I got it that there was something wrong and they always insisted it was something I did or that my tonearm was not up to the task. Now I know that it was nothing that I did because i did the same thing with the Glider. I can live with the Glider, but wanted to try the Lyra because I heard one at my friends house and I was very impressed with what I heard. It sounded like REAL music.
Lyra and VPI Scout
Do Lyra cartridges work well with VPI Scout? I had a Benz H2, sounded horrible, could never get it to track well. I think it is defective and Benz is not handling it. I am currently using a older Benz Glider high output, tracks great, same table and alignment tool, go figure. I have a new phono preamp (Xono) that will accept all kinds of cartridge loads and liked the way a Lyra sounded on my friends old Mission table with a Mechanic tonearm. My table and that one are not in the same league but I wanted to know of anyone else is using Lyra cartridges with the Scout. I was looking at either a Delos or a Helikon. I am not sure about the compatibility with a jmw 9 tonearm.
