Looking for help with a Benz SL low output cartridge

I went from a Sutherland KC Vibe to a Sutherland TZ Vibe.  I’m using it with a Hana ML moving coil cartridge. It sounds really good.  You could speak to Ron Sutherland if you want to verify compatibility.

so much for me to digest. I currently use a Lamm 2.1 deluxe pre. I don't know the gain. I too, don't think I have enough gain on the KC Vibe. Upscale Audio is who suggested the SUT. Coincidently I have a friend who just listened to a Bob's device and he acknowledged quite an improvement. I am waiting to hear from Ron. I will look into other options mentioned above. Sorry I can't get them all individually.

thanks

The gain on the Lamm is 18db. Add that to the gain on the phono stage!

@dpm2340 

cartridge is 0.4 mV signal, 12 ohm coil, correct?

Gain settings: 40, 45, 50, 55 or 60 dB
Loading: 100, 200, 475, 1k or 47kOhms

have you changed the jumpers inside the unit to:

gain 60 db (max signal boost)

loading 100. (you could also try 200, but start with 100)

after those changes: NOT ENOUGH VOLUME?

"The LL2.1 is a direct replacement for the LL2. Aside from a few new parts and slight changes in the schematic, the most important modification, at least from my perspective, is the introduction of a switch-selectable 15dB gain attenuator. With this switch on, the gain drops from about 18dB to only 3dB."

double check the attenuator is not engaged, so you get the 18 db gain, not only 3 db
