Has anyone tried the new Kleos SL (low output .25mv) with a ARC Ref Phono 2?

I have the regular Kleos that is due for a re-tip and was considering switching to the Kleos SL with my Ref Phono.

I am using the Clearaudio Talisman V2 Gold. The recommended load resistance is 300Ω however the closest setting is 200Ω. The remote has an option for "Custom" how do I set this to 300Ω without sending to the dealer which is 1000's km away?

My favorite cartridge has been a re-tipped MC Sigma Genesis 2000, which has a .2 mV output and sounds great with the Ref Phono 2SE.

I have a long appreciation for Lyras, and currently own a kleos. I recently bought a kiseki Purple Heart which is a stunner into my ref3 phono. Very vivid, pure, detailed, musical, and full of insight.

For the money, Shelter Harmony really sings with Ref 3SE.

Benz Micro Gullwing SLR mounted on a Kuzma Stogi REF 313 VTA and a regular Lyra Kleos on a VPI 12” FatBoy Unipivot w/ dual pivot mod . Using a REF Phono 2 SE w/ a REF 40 Anniversary linestage . Very happy REF Phono 2 SE but still wishing to upgrade for a REF Phono 10 .

Try contacting ARC Customer Service. It may be as simple as adding an appropriate resistor to the circuit board.

I have a bunch, but if I had to choose between them all, and my love of wooden body cartridges, I would do an NOS Kiseki Purple Heart or Black Heart.
