And it'll sound like sh*t since you don't use a Riaa correction .... ;-))
A total (unfiltered) gain of about 3600 for MM is quite normal ....

OK, what am I missing? My Sumiko, which is a high output MC, has an
output
of 3mV times a gain of 600 is 1.8V. Add a line stage and you have more
than
enough gain for any amp. My amp drives to full output with a gain of .8V
so
no line stage would be needed with this phono stage.

Hence the use of 6C45pi, 417A, and paralleled 6DJ8 tubes, etc,
and this supposedly allows the use of moving coil carts, without a
step
up
tranny.

But that won't work with a total max. gain of 600 x .....
Ec8010 (on ccs) x # 76 (on ccs) = 60 x 10 = 600 .....
Way to (sic) low ! Even for MM ......
