The complaint about the MC stage being hardwired for ten ohms refers to a general audio principal that the input impedance should be 10x or greater in relation to the source impedance. Personally I would try it for myself and see.
I would also recommend looking up the forum thread on this site-"Who needs MC when we have MM" . A moving magnet cartridge can give excellent results and you wouldn't be using the MC phono input .
Or, do some research and if you want to have the input resistance changed on the Mac, find a reputable tech and have it changed. I would certainly give it a listen first though.
