Quicksilver MC Step Up Help

Just purchased a used on from here at Gon. Setup is Scout with Shelter 501->Quick silver MC Stepup->PSAudio GCPH->Preamp

No output at all, (without the MC sound is normal) Qucksilver comes with the outpur RCA cables pre-attached, I have then hooked up to the phono amp.

Coincidently QuickSilver is in hte process of relocating to California and are closed, Waiting for seller to respond. Any help is appreciated.

Tubegb,

The gain is 60db on GCPH with my volume control on GCPH all the way up, my preamp id 18db, As the output of the catridge is only .4mv.
My logic is to put a stepup to so I do not have to use the full volume on the GCPH.

thanks for the pointer/corection,(it meant 100ohms), I will try your sugegstion later today. Once question though, even if the load and gain are not matched, should I not still get some kind of sound ?
