I just switched to the Teatro and have ordered a Bob's Sky 20. The Giscours works really well with the Teatro and Bob's 1131 at 1:20 but Bob said the Sky 1:20 uses the whole transformer rather than half of it. I'm looking forward to trying it. I also have a Lyra Etna and use a Lyra Erodion SUT with it. The Etna does not sound as good with the Bob's at 1:20. For it, he recommends the Sky 1:30.
While the VR's internal transformer worked ok with my Dynavector, I learned it was not the optimum choice and was never meant to be. The T1 would not be either for that matter.

Teatro is an AMG cart, right?
My Koetsu Urushi Blue has a source impedance of 5 Ohm (considered low),
so, to my understanding, A 23 Hommage T1 should be a good match?
and so is Koetsu SUT.
Please, correct me, if I'm wrong
You confirmed my suspicion with regards to the origin of the MC input hum, I'm hoping external SUT will take care of that, and maybe will lower the gain?
Do you think Bob's devices might be a good match for Koetsu?
