Your cartridge has a .3 mv output which shouldn't be an issue with the EAR that has 70 db in MC mode.
SUT for EAR 834p?
Hi folks. Happy Wednesday.
When I was younger I owned an EAR 834p (20 years ago?). Loved it, don’t know why I sold it. So I recently bought another one.
I found a very nice 834p (with Mullards) and have been playing through my system with a Dynavector 20x2L cartridge. If I press the moving coil button on the back, it sounds fine but I need to turn the volume up to really enjoy my music.
I’ve read that inserting an SUT between the table (SL1210GR) and the EAR might be a good idea, and if I do that just use the MM input. Supposed to sound "better"?
I’d appreciate experience listeners describing to me what differences I might notice other than increased volume. SUT’s are not inexpensive and suggestions would be appreciated brands/models. Or do I just sell the Dynavector and get a high output MC? Or a high quality MM?
Btw my music is "straight" jazz and classic rock. And lots of acoustic guitar. And piano, cello, etc.
Thank you and Happy 4th coming up (my birthday).
Steve Ashe
