I've used cartridges with internal impedances ranging from 4-14 ohms with no problems with my Aqvox, and think that all worked well.
I've also used an AT MONO3/LP with an internal impedance of 40 ohms and thought it worked reasonably well with my stage, although it was not a great match in terms of output/gain, having a bit too much output for the Aqvox to really dial it in; the review of the Loco I saw on line stated it would not work at all with that phono stage delivering only a loud hum, so there may be some other slightly odd compatibility issues with certain cartridges and the Loco because of other elements of its design. The Aqvox is fully balanced in and out so perhaps that is why I was still able to get that AT to work with it.
The Lyras are in the middle to upper range of output (as far as low output MC's are concerned) with .5 mV and .6 mV respectively with Kleos and Delos and the issue with the Delos may have had more to do with proper gain matching/setup than the internal impedance of the Lyra at 8.2 ohms which is still relatively low.
Most current mode stages should perform reasonably well with cartridges with internal impedances of 1-10 ohms I would think.
