Thanks for the feedback. I'll likely try the MM preamp at first and then find a dedicated MC preamp. It's not a huge investment so I'll start looking soon.
Can a MC cartridge be used with a MM preamp?
I am considering upgrading my analog rig from a MM cartridge/TT (Clearaudio Aurum Classic Wood/Clearaudio Emotion) to a MC cartridge (Dynavector 20XH/VPI Scout) setup. I am currently using a Creek OBH-8 preamp which is dedicated to MM cartridges. Since the Dynavector is a high output MC (2.5mV) will this work with the Creek OBH-8?
