Best phono stage for Lyra Etna SL cartridge?

by Current mode, you mean Lino C?

@chungjh,

Have you tried tweaking the VTA.  Lowering the tail just a little bit (assuming you have a tonearm that has adjustable VTA) can often reduce sibilance.  If this does work, then go back and try higher impedance.  You may need to tweak & tweak until you dial in the best you can get.

Good Luck,

You may be surprised at what 47k can do for a LOMC  Then too, its dependent on the phono stage circuit's stability. At 14ohm load, the suspension has little movement which seems all wrong to me.

See the recent SUT thread where @jcarr weighed in on loading, etc.

Great advice to slightly revisit VTA…while messing w loading…..

Regarding "current mode" phono stage you can read about this one from 47 Labs.
This is what I use for low impedance (as an option), but it's not necessary better than traditional phono stages, suts, headamps etc. Find what YOU like.
