Very nice system. I just recently switched from XLO 3A
phono cables to the Discovery Essence cables and thought
the Essence a huge jump.

Is there a real difference going from the Lyra Helikon
to the Helikon mono? I've got a Benz Ruby for stereo
and a Helikon mono. The mono is great but I thought
part of the reason I like it so much is that it has
more weight than the Benz.

Regards, Randy
