Will my preamp work with MC cartridge?


I just picked up a Antique Lab PP-1 phono preamp. Also, I purchased a VPI HW-19 Jr. table - My phono cart. is a Benz Micro (it does not indicate if is high, medium, or low output) ... just says Benz Micro and it looks identical to glider.

My question is will these specs be sufficient for a MC cartridge w/o using a step-up? Specs are as follows:

Voltage Gain: 40dB min @ 1KHz Gain Adj Range: Full gain to -90dB Frequency Range: 20-20,000Hz Equalization: RIAA or flat (HF boost) Input Impedance: 47K Ohm Output Impedance: 1K Ohm Hum & Noise: Less than .6 mV Channel Separation: -60dB at 10kHz Sensitivity: less than 10mV for full output Maximum Output: 7 V RMS (20V peak to peak).

Any input is greatly appreciated.
