Pani, if you mate the FM122 with a linestage having 12-18db of gain, you’d be in a good place to drive most amplifiers with most LOMC cartridges. (At the far end of that range, you’re adding 18db of gain which would be very capable.) Or did you mean to say that the FM Acoustics linestages have about that much gain? If so, many other linestages also have gain in that range. But a passive linestage or an active one with zero added gain need not apply.
If shopping for a current mode phono stage, my advice is to try to find out exactly what is the input impedance. You want it to be as close to zero as possible, but of course it cannot be zero, because that would represent a short circuit, like a mute switch, for the cartridge. I would look for 10 ohms or less, to take the most advantage of the current output of a LOMC. Likewise, you can estimate the current output of the cartridge by dividing its voltage output by its internal resistance. Right away this tells you that LOMCs with high-ish internal resistance, say greater than 10 ohms, are not going to work so efficiently with a current mode design. So, for one of the lowest voltage output cartridges ever made, the Ortofon MC2000, at .05mV, it has an internal resistance of 2 ohms. Thus it makes ~25 micro-amps of current. Do the calculation for other LOMCs and you will see that the MC2000 actually makes a credible amount of current. Because most have an internal resistance much higher than 2 ohms.
