there are a lot discussions about this...but from my experience the best results are with the perfect matched transformers and MC cartridge...that said, you have to find the match and it takes some time! Also it does not have to be the most $$$ transformer to give you the best match...I would go with Ortofon transformer for the W for sure...
Ear MC-4 Step up transformer
I recently purchased an Ortofon, P Windfield, MC cartridge and I'm having great results running it through my Ear 834p phono stage. I am told by friends that the addition of an Ear MC-4 step up transformer will greatly improve the sound. Now, I think the sound is great but they are saying the MC-4 addition will far surpass what I am hearing now.
I'm new to the MC cartridge adventure so I'm not even really sure how to properly set up this configuration.
Is there anyone here that has experience with this configuration? What impediance/gain setting would be best?
I believe the Ortofon puts out .22mv
