For Sale here is my Olympos SL which I bought from Cindy Kerr (from ex Audio Gallery in Oregon).
When I bought the cartridge from Cindy, she just received it from Japan and newly rebuilt by the Lyra Master!
Since then, the cartridge had done only 12 hours and has been sitting in my stable of cartridges.
Now, the time has come to sell most of my high end Audio Gear which had been bought and sitting idle due to health reasons.

A NEW Olympos SL cartridge is considered un-obtainable, period.
If you are fortunate enough to even find a used Olympos SL for your enjoyment you are indeed a lucky person.
In my opinion, there is no other cartridge like it sonically.
Incredibly refined and able to extract all the subtle nuances of all genres of music.
It is for a music lover who appreciates the very best and exquisite!!
Info from Lyra:

LYRA OLYMPOS (Special custom model only possible to make with trade-in of original blue body Parnassus)
(OR a rebuild of an Olympos SL as was this particular cartridge)
The LYRA Olympos exists as a special model outside of the standard LYRA range. It is a custom specialty offering, and should not be thought of as our top-of-the-line cartridge.

In the early 1990's we introduced a cartridge model called Parnassus which was later referred to as the blue body, original Parnassus to distinguish it from the later Parnassus D.C.t, an entirely different design.

The original Parnassus was based around a very unique platinum-iron magnet and two 5N high-purity iron pole pieces. It had a seductive and attractive sound which made it stand out from the competition at the time.

A few years ago we discovered a stock of 10 platinum-iron magnets and 5N iron polepieces for the Parnassus. LYRA designer Jonathan Carr had long wanted to design an entirely new cartridge using machined titanium for the body, and employing the latest geometry and other cutting-edge features from LYRA's 21st Century cartridges, but using the unique, and by now unavailable, platinum-iron magnet. As a result, a very limited production run of 10 Olympos cartridges was planned.

Domestic or International bank transfer is preferred.
