IF you already have a MM Phono stage you really like, then a SUT simply boosts signal strength to keep on using that MM Phono stage. That's the choice I made, very happy results.
Will Step Up Transformer Improve the Sound Quality?
I'm wondering whether a step-up transformer would improve my analog signal path. I have a VPI Prime Signature with a Dynavector 17D3 Karat cart. My phono stage is a Parasound JC3+. The rest of the path is a PS Audio BHK Signature Preamp and a Pass Labs X-150.8 amp into Spatial Audio M3 Turbo S speakers and dual REL S/3 SHO subwoofers using Audience cables. I am looking for advice as to whether adding a SUT would markedly improve the sound. I am also looking for recommendations as to which SUT's would work well in this system.

This MM/MC Phono seems very versatile https://www.ebay.com/itm/Pro-Ject-Tube-Box-DS-MM-MC-Tube-Phono-Preamplifier-Black/224349939634 think of it as an internal variable SUT |
