Lyra Etna or Atlas?

I know the new series of both are Lamda with a new pre-loaded suspension design. 
I know they both come in two outputs, with the lower output labeled SL. 
I know there is not a six month waiting list because I just bought one. 
I can't tell you much more from personal experience but from what my salesman told me, both series are great and the Atlas gives you a very small but significant degree of extra refinement. 
I will be installing the Etna Lamda .56 mv on a Reed 3P 10.5/heavily modded Garrard 301 this weekend,

Both great pickups. Of the new Lambda series I’ve only set up an Atlas (not SL) and it was rather special in terms of extracting delicacy from the mix while analytically conveying all the texture, tone, space and pace you would expect.

FWIW, my overall feeling from the previous series is that the Etna has a bit more boogie & emphasis in music’s flow while the Atlas lets you smell the roses.

Great analogy!

Never heard the atlas but I love my etna
