Lyra
Japan
Lyra is a specialist Japanese moving coil cartridge manufacturer, designed by Jonathan Carr and built by Yoshinori Mishima.
The range includes well-known models such as Delos, Kleos, Etna and Atlas, with the brand recognised for precision tracking, low moving mass and highly developed generator design.
Lyra’s key technical distinction is its “New Angle” technology, which mechanically pre-biases the signal coils so they align correctly under playing conditions rather than at rest. This matters because a cartridge only performs properly when it is tracing a record groove under tracking force. Correctly set up, Lyra cartridges are exceptionally revealing, stable and controlled without losing musical structure or naturalness.
