Ortofon Cadenze versus Lyra Delos

Looking to upgrade my cartridge. Listen to a large variety of music.

Considering Ortofon Cadenza Red/Blue versus Lyra Delos.

System:
B&W 804 Diamond speakers
McIntosh MC275 amplifier
Triode TRX-1 preamplifier
Fosgate Signature Phono Stage
VPI Classic 1 turntable
JL Audio F110 subwoofer

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have a Red and a Delos. I prefer the Delos, but the Red is no slouch either.

Not so fast my friend...While I have not heard a Delos directly compared with a Cadenza, I can tell you the Cadenza Red is a fine cartridge, detailed without being sterile. I own one. Worth a listen. Obviously, if possible, make a direct comparison and let your ears decide.
