Features
The Argo is the new entry-level model from Lyra, and replaces the discontinued Lydian Beta. [...] Technology-wise [...], the Argo shares practically nothing in common with the Lydian Beta. Rather than thinking of the Argo as an upgraded Lydian, it is more appropriate to consider the Argo as a simplified Helikon - with different physical geometry, different metallurgy and alternative voicing.
