Phono Preamp Needs


Hello All:
I've got a ML 38S preamp. Tried the B&K phono 10 phono preamp - almost no gain. Any suggestions on a better matching phono preamp for the 38S.
Thanks in advance.

You need at least a 60-65db gain in your phono stage, unless you want to pair it with a step-up transformer, in which case you could get away with 40-45db. The typical step-up transformer will add 20-30db to the signal strength.
