    Here are some reviews when this cartridge came out:
    Review Summary
    Sound "Great balance" -- "doesn't highlight one aspect of the music to the detriment of another"; "the all-important midrange is…full and rounded, as with live music"; bass "goes plenty low enough".
    Features Nude design; "dust cover" is a "paper designed to trap dust and dirt and keep it away from the moving-coil mechanism".
    Use Requires 100 to 47k ohms loading; recommended tracking force is 1.6 to 1.75 grams.
    Value An engaging moving-coil cartridge at an entry-level price for true high-end performance.
    This is the original Lyra Lydian moving coil cartridge. In typical Lyra fashion, the sound is detailed, fast, and dynamic.
    The Lyra Lydian was one of the reference cartridges of the late 1990, often compared to the Benz Glider.

    CONDITION:
    This cartridge comes from a sophisticated home audio system. The owner decided to upgrade to something different.
    This turntable was mounted on the backup turntable, which was rarely used. Owner stated that he used the cartridge less than 100 hours. We checked the cartridge before taking it out, and it sounded wonderful.
    When I took the green shell off the cartridge body - first time since the factory, there was no dust or dirt on the gold plated cartridge body, which can enter through the slit above the catilever.
    The cartridge is super clean and visually in new condition. No scrapes or rubs, the stylus is perfectly centered and in the correct position.
    Comes with the two original mounting screws.
    DC resistance on both channels checks out at 3.3 Ohm.
