Default Lyra manufacturers forum

Arguably the best cartridges in the world...doesn't have a manufacturers forum. Big statement!! So I'll ask my question here and hope someone from Lyra can respond, or some erudite member of the forum knows. I have recently acquired an AT 637 ultrasonic stylus cleaner....I had read about them and since they are no longer manufactured, when I saw one come up for sale I bought it as "unobtanium". Now I'm wondering if it is safe to actually use on Lyra cartridges or any modern cartridge? I have both the Delos and the Atlas.

I have an Atlas. If this is the little "vibrating" brush device I have and have used it. It worked well. But I felt uncomfortable with a device that has an action that I cannot fully control. I went back to the simple stiff brush and the zero-dust sticky device. Occasionally use the Lyra stylus liquid.

I have 2 AT637's & use them on my Lyra Argo i.

Havent had any problems so far (figures crossed).

At my Argo is 10years old in October & time to replace, so how do you find the Delos dinster?

NZ, the Delos is brilliant, it keeps the Lyra house sound of accuracy and detail. I could easily live with it. When I listen to them the Atlas is most definitely not $12,000.00 better than the Delos!

The Trace, thanks, seems like it is safe..question is, is it better than the brush and liquid? probably not.
