Lyra Kleos High End Cartridge MC
"The Lyra KLEOS is a world-class system absolutely suitable for everyday use, capable of conjuring up the most delicate reverb traces and subtle timbral nuances, a quality that even the most bit-rich and rapidly sampling digital formats cannot match." Read more in the 6/2013 issue of "FIDELITY" magazine.
The magazine “hifi & records” , issue 3/2013, attests that the KLEOS offers a dream combination of “astonishing precision, beautifully shaded tones without any exaggeration and super-finely graded dynamics.”
And in the 10/2010 issue of “stereoplay,” the KLEOS was also described as an analogue sensation that challenged the then-reference system TITAN i.
In short, a brilliant system at a sensational price!
