Ortofon Anna or Transfuration Proteus?

Thoress preamp TW 10.5 TW ac 3 with all BN updates.

Thanks Ebm, I am worried my high mass arm Ortofon 309 would not match Proteus too well. This is my only worry for Proteus. Otherwise I would have bought one already.

The Lyra Atlas and the Ortofon 309D is a superb match. The Atlas has a 0.55 mV output which works with the Ortofon SUT. I tried the Proteus with the 309D but the results were disappointing after trying a range of loading options from 33ohm upto 47kohm. Maybe it's the 0.2mV output of the Proteus or the high mass of the 309D.

You can roll the dice between your selection. A "good" Cartridge should have the following abilities:
*Integrated sound top to bottom.
*Tonally neutral.
*Superior ambient detail retrieval.
*The music "breathes". It has an exceptional ability to capture the increase and decrease of the sound pressure of the human voice.
*Excellent transient response.
*All the above produces a very realistic and open presentation.

Neither Anna or Proteus have those abilities, not even one from the lines above. They may have other abilities, but right now, I do not know which ones

Proteus and Anna are GREAT sounding they have everything.
