Benz-Micro SLR Gullwing MC

Need a new cartridge and have been researching best options. The SLR Gullwing looks nice but wanted to verify which one to get and if it will fit with my system. I see there is a low and high output and think the SLR is the way to go.

My system is:

Preamp: Adcom GFP-565 (bought around 1995)

Turntable: Pro-ject RM9.2

Is the Benz-Micro SLR Gullwing MC a good choice and is it the right one for my preamp/turntable?

Thanks!

The criticism of your preamp is overblown. The Adcom has a very nice phono stage noted for its low noise/distortion, but unfortunately it does not have the gain required for the Benz Gullwings. The Adcom recommend 2mv input and the Benz Micro highout only outputs .7mv.

What is your current cartridge?
