Best SUT For Van Den Hul Crimson Stradivarius cartridge


Please suggest a SUT For Van Den Hul Crimson Stradivarius cartridge.
I currently own a Ypsilon MC26L Ypsilon VPS 100 Phonostage.

However the highs are high. Since the cart is putting out 0.95 mV, it may be overdriving the phono stage as MC26L has 26 amplification ratio.

Even the lowest amplification ratio Ypsilon MC10 is recommended for carts 0.4-0.6 mV. 

I am not sure if there are SUTs with 5 amplification ratio.

Raul, You make a good point that the Cary can give 24db of gain if connected in balanced mode.  I guess you may be suggesting that the Cary could drive the amplifiers in balanced mode.  That is a good idea if the amplifiers have a balanced input circuit.  I am of the same mind as you; if it were me I would not want to add a SUT, but the OP seemed to be bending in that direction.  I am doubtful that the amps have balanced input, but the OP can tell us.
@kanchi647   :Ok, then do it your self a favor and try it. Through a test you will know for sure before you pull the trigger for a SUT.:

I used XLR cables from Ypsilon VPS100 to Cary SLP05 and from Cary to CAD 211FE. The sound was very low. 
I wonder whether the "balanced" outputs or inputs on the Cary gear are just XLR inputs that feed single-ended circuitry.  (I don't know this for a fact, but Cary is not known for balanced circuits.  On the other hand, I am no expert on the current marketplace.)  Nor did I think the Ypsilon had a balanced circuit, other than possibly XLRs for use of balanced cables.  The VPS100 uses an LCR type RIAA circuit.  It is very difficult to implement LCR in true balanced mode; it would require very closely matched parts to work well. Also, a check on the Ypsi website says nothing about balanced circuits in the VPS100.
