CAT SL1 - is there enough GAIN using 0.4mV mc??


Hello CAT users. I am considering buying the CAT SL1. I am using a Shelter 501 mc with 0.4mV output. Will there be enough gain with little distortion going with this combo?

Which cartridge are YOU using with your CAT?

Which model CAT should I be looking at since there are so many...thanks cats!!

Should have edited my post before posting but I hit the wrong key!

Correction: I meant to say that Blues does NOT sound right if the bass slam is missing.
(might be obvious but all-the-same).

You also might want to call Ken Stevens and ask him, as I did. He would be the one who knows best...Cheers,

GOOD advice CAT lovers!! I'll first try without a step-up and see if the sound quality is acceptable. I will also talk to Ken Stevens...

Thanks for all your comments and very helpful advice!!
