Are there any advantages to mc over mm?


I am kinda lost here, I will ask the audiogon community. With my high output benz wood mc cartridge is there any advantage of using mc side over the mm on my phono stage? Thanks,scott

Use whichever sounds better; high output MCs are intended to be used with MM inputs in most cases as the additional gain in not needed and a good rule of thumb is to use no more gain than you need. However; there are always exceptions and yours might sound better to you through the MC input. Try it either way as long as you are not overloading the MC stage, which is unlikely but possible.
