               Lyra Etna Moving Coil Cartridge


  • Highly sough after and one of the most desired cost no object cartridges made !

  • No low offer considered.

Details:
  • Lyra again turns the analog world on its ear with the introduction of
    the Etna phono cartridge. Sharing its name with Sicily’s majestic Mount
    Etna, Etna the cartridge is an impressive monument in its own right,
    one that melds tried and true Lyra design tenets with designer Jonathan
    Carr’s very latest thinking on phono cartridges.

    Etna’s center
    structure is solid titanium, but unlike the renowned flagship Atlas (and
    the Titan i before it) this central core is surrounded by an outer body
    that is machined from highly-polished aircraft-grade aluminum and
    anodized with a sexy black finish. The two pieces are press-fitted with
    resonance control rods and stainless steel screw bushings in a
    multi-material approach that is similar to the Skala’s two-piece “blade
    structure” construction, but much improved in its rigidity and damping
    characteristics. The advantage of such constrained-layer construction is
    that no single material’s sonic signature defines the sound of the
    cartridge.

    Etna’s asymmetric design employs an offset yoke, a
    design concept first brought to fruition in the flagship Atlas. By
    offsetting the front magnet carrier so that it is not in line with the
    cantilever assembly, a direct path is established between the cantilever
    assembly and the tonearm’s headshell. Vibrations are quickly drained
    away once converted to electrical signals, effectively suppressing any
    induced resonances that would otherwise manifest as sonic coloration.

    Lyra
    remains the only cartridge manufacturer to mount the cantilever
    directly into the cartridge body, which results in a seamless, totally
    rigid connection between the cantilever assembly and headshell. The
    cantilever is diamond-coated boron, tipped with a slot-mounted nude
    line-contact diamond stylus.

    Etna retains the X-shaped coil
    formers first unveiled in the flagship Atlas. Compared to traditional
    square coil formers, the X-shape allows each channel to operate with
    greater autonomy from one another, increasing tracking consistency and
    channel matching while also improving channel separation due to the
    decrease in crosstalk. Lyra’s new angle technology pre-biases the signal
    coils so they are perfectly aligned to the front and rear magnets
    during LP playback, which allows the coils to move optimally in all
    directions for superior, distortion-free playback.

    With the
    introduction of Etna, the Titan i model is discontinued and now limited
    to stock on hand. The Lyra line now comprises Delos, Kleos, Skala, Etna
    and Atlas.

    While Etna is second from the top in Lyra’s line, one
    listen will demonstrate that this cartridge’s performance would define
    the very top of any other cartridge line. Atlas has a very refined,
    elegant and voluptuous sound while Etna’s personality is more outgoing.
    We truly believe that choosing between these two exceptional performers
    will come down to one’s tastes and the system in which it will live. For
    many customers Etna will be ideal and become their preferred Lyra.
