How much gain are users of high output MC or MM, or MI cartridges using? Is 40-50DB gain from the phonostage to much for cartridges ranging from 2.5 to 5.0 output? Personal experiences would be great. Thank you.
My cartridge has a 2.5 mV output, my phonostage has 42 db of gain and my linestage has 22 db of gain. This is MORE than enough gain, as I usually listen with the volume pot at around 10 o'clock.
