Tom, if you're talking about partnering kit then I think you've mentioned the most crucial aspect of the whole thing. Never has synergy had a more important part to play. Not quite sure how long the Jubilee has been out of production now - superseded by the Cadenza's I think? By coincidence, in my gazing through the multitude of internet ramblings, I found this:
"So how did this Lyra (Delos) compare to the discontinued Ortofon Jubilee I cherished for so long?
Very, very well. In fact, in my system, I preferred the Delos in every way: It just seemed to let more sonic and musical splendors through, as if there was less haze between me and the music. "Veils were lifted," as audiophiles used to say back in the day, and every record I played sounded as if it "snapped" into a tighter auditory focus courtesy (of) the Delos.....
......The Lyra Delos was the most musically convincing cartridge I'd yet heard in my own system--no small feat considering the Delos costs noticeably less than the Jubilee ($1649 vs. $2199), and that the latter still handily bests many pricier cartridges."
I admit to still being more than a little uncertain as to which Ortofon Cartridge (Red, Blue or Bronze) would come closest to suiting my musical tastes although I'm relatively happy that they'd each sit OK in my system. Likewise I'm still trying to form a view on the sonic characteristics of the Delos.
I haven't actually found a poor review of any of those listed - but that doesn't automatically translate into "buy any one of them and you'll be fine".
Translating music into words is a rare gift.
