Product Description

The Lyra Erodion EVO Phono Preamplifier is now available in the US and Canada. This Moving Coil Step-Up Interface (MC step-up transformer) is especially designed for Lyra cartridges, but also a terrific fit with any low-impedance cartridge of 2 – 10 ohms. Erodion EVO’s retail price is $6,500.

Lyra’s Erodion EVO cartridge is a particularly compelling mate to Lyra’s SL (Single-Layer coil) MC cartridges – Kleos SL, Etna Lambda SL and Atlas Lambda SL.

With less noise and, and more importantly, fewer electronic artifacts than most phono stages, many audiophiles will find improved performance from Erodion EVO, even when it is paired with well-respected high-gain, low-noise phono stages.

Additionally, Erodion EVO has wider bandwidth and dynamic range than other step-up transformers, which results in sonic impact that is between an active head amp and a conventional step-up transformer.

Regardless of the gain potential of a given phono stage, Erodion EVO delivers an utterly addictive and punchy musicality to Lyra’s SL cartridges that may be unrivalled. 

With 26dB gain (20x) the Erodion EVO increases the signal voltage and output impedance of low-output, low-impedance MC cartridges up to a level that’s comfortable for MM-compatible phono inputs of preamplifiers and phono stages that have input loads of around 47 kohms.

Erodion EVO includes an integrated Lyra-designed-and-made low-capacitance Phono Pipe output cable (60cm or approx. 2ft.) for connection to your phono stage. There are two switchable grounding positions. Position 2 (floating ground) is recommended.

* Gain: 26dB (20 times) (when cartridge’s internal impedance is 2 – 10 ohms and MM level RIAA preamplifier or phono stage presents 47 kohms load)
* Necessary load of MM RIAA preamplifier or phono stage: 10 kohms ~ 47 kohms
* Useable MC phono cartridges: internal impedance range of 2 ohms – 10 ohms
* Frequency range: 10 – 100,000 Hz (when above conditions are met)

* Output Phono Cable Length: 60cm / 2 ft.
* Feet: three stainless steel spikes
* Net size: (W x D x H) 150 mm x 115 mm (128 mm incl. connectors) x 65 mm (78 mm incl. feet), 
* Net weight: 2430 grams / 5.2 lbs
* Size of package: (W x D x H) 185 mm x 146 mm x 90 mm
* Gross weight incl. package: 2640 grams / 5.8 lbs
* This product does not contain any electrical power supply, and it does not require any power input of any kind.

Lyra

Hyper-focused enterprises are often a true sign of greatness and genius. While many high-end audio manufacturers focus on a wide array of products, Lyra strives to perfect just one. The Tokyo-based company creates the most technologically advanced phono cartridges on the market. American designer Jonathan Carr, Japanese craftsman Yoshinori Mishima and Norwegian businessman Stig Bjorge bring global expertise to the mission. Each phono cartridge is meticulously crafted under Mishima's careful supervision. The result is impeccable build and quality for each of their products. Since the company's foundation, its research has resulted in four unique lines: the Delos, Kleos, Etna, and Atlas. The Delos MC Phono Cartridge incorporates a pre-angled damping system, a non-paralleled solid metal body, and a microridge stylus for improved resolution, range, and crips transients. The Kleos includes New Angle technology and a stronger chassis for superior tracking and tonal balance. Replacing the company's original Titan cartridge, the Etna provides high quality at a low value through a solid titanium core structure and asymmetric outer body. Atlas is their flagship model and the world's first asymmetrical MC phono cartridge. The asymmetrical shape counters the inefficiency of traditional cartridges that result in echoes and diminished quality. It creates a direct path between the cantilever and the headshell and reduces resonance by eliminating standing signal waves. As a nationally recognized leader in the field of high-end audio and home theater, Overture is a proud dealer of Lyra phono cartridges, selling customers the best phono cartridges from Lyra in Sales Tax Free Delaware.
