Looks like SS is the only game in town for retips or rebuilds. Except of course the manufacturer. Too bad Andy's work seems to be not up to snuff at this point!
Lyra Kleos Repair
My sweater got hung on the stylus and I bent the cantilever on my Kleos, It will play through both channels, but it's very distorted and sounds nasty. Has anyone had repairs done on newer Lyra, and who should do it?
Thanks

Have you read J. Carr's comments? http://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/andy-kim-needle-clinic/post?postid=702459#702459 |
Yes I have read his comments. What do you expect him to say? He has to support his companies ripoff policy. To answer a far earlier question, in my case what I was quoted equals the core trade in value. I believe the op will find his quote to be the same. Another reason for this is the fact that audioquest is probably taking a cut as well. Whereas in a sound smith scenario there is no middleman. Also as I have mentioned earlier in the thread, why the difference in pricing between my delos and the op's kleos? It is essentially the same job but one costs 1200$ more??!! Basically they are ripping you for every penny they feel they can. |
r f sayles, I just read the link from J. Carr. Why hasn't he chimed in here to offer some guidance? My cantilever is bent, not broken, and the stylus is fine. I would have been happy to send it to them for a look and some adjusting. It still played through both channels, but was very distorted. Maybe that was all that was needed. But instead, Audioquest wanted $2,775. And I explained the situation the same to them as I just did here. |
