10-02-07: Amandarae Hello Tvad,
Do you believe it would be worth the investment to buy a Benz Micro Ace Lo (.4 mv)? It depends on the spec of your Cortese. Maybe it is designed for low output(lower than 0.4 mV)carts. Judging from your descripton of the gain being "too hot", it might well be the case.
Mick should be able to tell you what it is base on the serial number and I am sure he can recommend what cartridge to use for optimum performance. Better yet, ask him what he used to voice out the phono section of the kind of preamp you have.
regards,
