Need help finding a new phono stage.

I just purchased the Marantz tt-15s1.
It has a dynavector 10x5 installed on it.
I have a Cambridge audio cp1, and it sounds great. Which I'm not fully understanding because I thought that stage was for mm only? Can someone help explain this?
My amp is set 3/4 the way up for the volume level I like.. but even at full tilt it doesnt sound distorted or anything!
I guess my main question, and my next step is what is a good phono stage to upgrade to??
For now though I am happy. 
Thanks in advance.

Look for JLTi phono stage or Gold Note PH-10 phono stage.

The goal of the Gold Note PH-10 is two independent phono stage in one box, each input can be set up for MM or MC with many load options and gain options. The most user friendly phono stage and fully adjustable.

The different curves is a bonus, personally i use RIAA, the benefit of the Gold Note is not curves, but a optional loading (imo).

I am a big fan of JLTi phono stage, the sound quality is amazing, the design is pretty simple, optional loading with RCA plug resistors. Great price in AUD ! With the right cartridge this phono stage can be better than Gold Note PH-10 !
