Ive narrowed my cart for the VPI to the Lyra Dorian or Lyra Argo. Those with Lyra cartridges here, what phono stages, SUTs have you guys paired them with. Would appreciate some insights.
I have the Nagra VPS and it sounds great with my Lyra & Koetsu cartridges. If it is to costly I recommend you try the Nagra BPS. I have listen to both of my cartridges through it and it sounded very very good.
I use a K&K "Maxxed-Out" phono stage with my Skala (and an Argo before), and am quite pleased - I've compared it with several more expensive phono stages, and have never found it to be lacking in any performance parameter, especially considering the price. Musical, communicative, ultra quiet and it does the "hi-fi" things nicely as well. Although marketed as a kit, Kevin will assemble a complete, tested unit. The build is a lot of fun, but takes time and soldering skills.
