Ideal SUT for Lyra Olympos cartridge?

Dear Frontier1: IMHO the ideal SUT is NO SUT for that great cartridge. If you want to hear the Olympos " true " you need a good active high gain phono stage.

I think that if you own a Ferrari you don't put cycle tires " there ", right?

How about the Lyra Erodion SUT? Would make sense to me...

Dear Frontier1, ask Syntax - he has the Lyra Olympos running since 15 months and has a wide selection of SUTs.
Cheers,
D.

Btw, that does not means in any way Syntax is " correct ". As you with those 20 years using Ikeda wire many of us choosed to live in the " error " for months as Syntax or years like you.

IMHO all of us has the right and the desire to learn and grow-up.

Frontier1,
I'm fully with Rauliruegas on this one!
Excuse this crazy question but have you tried the Lyra straight into the MM input of your Shindo? This might give you a taste of how good a non-SUT setup can be? I do not doubt that there a great SUTs out there but they are few and far between(probably expensive too, + extra interconnect cost)), I personally never came across one.
I have a 0.28mV MC Colibri which I ran for a year into the ARC Ref Phono MC input (built-in Jensen SUT, 69db gain). Not sure what alcohol or drug I was on one night but I tried it into MM (48db gain) and up to this day I can't believe how much better it is. Yes there's a bit more hiss but the sound, OMG! So I'm now looking for a higher output Colibri. For half the cost of a great SUT I suspect you can finance an upgrade/crossgrade to a good non-SUT valve higher gain phono stage, maybe. BTW it also wouldn't suprise me if a cheaper higher output Lyra sounds better straight into MM than your current cart through an SUT...
