How many dbs i will gain with 0,6mv cart.vs 0,3mv?


Hello
I am loading my Shelter 501mkII (0,3 mv output) cartridge into 47K as reccomended by the manufacturer.When switching from my cd player to analog,i am always compensating volume by +10 (CJ Premier 18 LS)to match the same loudness as my cd source.
I was wondering how much i will gain if i switch to 0,6mv output cartridge (Koetsu Black)which has the same reccomended loading as my current Shelter.Thanks for your opinions.

Shelter 501 at 47k ohms. I ran mine at about 100 ohms. I'd try that soon. 47k is more what you would use with a MM not a MC FWIW.If you have to, years ago I remember attaching 1/4 watts directly to the back of the cartridge when I needed a 10k load for a grado.
