Jan 22, 2010 at 19:33 comment added Chris Schommer-Pries Ahh I see. If you really must work with EKMM, then you need to do a two stage comparison. (1) Go from EKMM spectra to orthogonal spectra: sequences of spaces indexed on inner product spaces together with structure maps, $S^V \wedge E(W) \to E( V \oplus W)$. There is no (overt) operad in the game though. Then you want to pass to the simplicial version of orthogonal spectra: simplicial sets indexed by inner product spaces together with maps like the above, but where $S^V$ is the singular simp. set, as you guessed. I believe both of these transitions are explained in the paper I cited.
Jan 22, 2010 at 14:29 comment added user2146 Thanks! This is already partially helpful, but Tyler is right. As far as I see EKMM work with topological spaces only and I wonder how to handle the $S^V$ in the definition of structure maps, if I try to use simplicial sets and no topological spaces.
Jan 22, 2010 at 13:35 comment added Tyler Lawson I think one issue the original poster referred to with "universe-indexed" spectra is that in, say, the EKMM definition one has structure maps $S^V \wedge E(W) \to E(V \oplus W)$ for any orthogonal pair of subspaces of $\mathcal U$. The lack of simplicial structure on $S^V$ obstructs writing down a direct analogue.
