Thank you all for input. Conrad-Johnson phono is 40 dB. I have checked other preamps for moving coil, they would suggest 60 dB is a good target amplification. So I need 20 to 24 dB. The Chorale is rated at .35 MV. I have feedback that suggests it is lower than that, maybe .25 or .15 mV. Agree, don't need 330 ohm exactly. Need to have a step up and be 100 ohm to 500 ohm. My other pre-amp the Nagra PL-P is 58.7 dB gain and 330 ohm. I feel that is a lowish and want a bit more output.
So what should I get. I owned two Ortofon's in the past. One called MCA-76. The cleanest would be a transformer like Lundahl or Jensen. Solder it inside the preamp and no need for interconnects. I would like to stay under $ 1,000. Happy with used step-up.
