The Lyra Erodion EVO is a moving coil step-up transformer designed by Jonathan Carr specifically for low-impedance moving coil cartridges. Rather than simply increasing signal voltage, the Erodion EVO has been engineered to preserve bandwidth, dynamic range and transient accuracy, allowing low-output moving coil cartridges to perform at their full potential when partnered with a high-quality moving magnet phonostage.
Custom-wound transformers, direct-wired internal connections and Lyra’s low-capacitance PhonoPipe output cable contribute to exceptional signal integrity and low noise. Offering 26dB of passive gain and optimised for cartridges with internal impedances between 2 and 10 ohms, the Erodion EVO is an outstanding partner for Lyra’s SL cartridges, while also delivering exceptional performance with many other low-impedance moving coil designs.
