phono stage volume


I have a Halfer DH110 preamp and a Grado X+ cartridge. The volume is much lower than when I am using the CD or Tuner inputs. Does anyone have a suggestion as to fixing this besides buying a new preamp or just turning up the volume?
Thanks!

32dB is basically nothing in terms of voltage amplification. You need a cartridge with at least 6..7mv output voltage.
