Requirements for Moving Coil setup


I have a Bryston 2B-MC preamp (the MC being the Moving Coil designation). I currently have two turntables, each with Grado MM cartridges. I would like to use the MM cartridge (Grado Blue) on my BIC 960 as a 'preview' turntable for 2nd hand vinyl recordings. The JVC QL-A2 would then be connected to the MC input for new vinyl or pieces that have been played and are relatively clean, surface wise. What would I need in order to connect a MC to my Bryston and take full advantage of this preamps analog capabilities?
Thank you

You need a phono preamp with MC capability whose inputs you can plug your turntable/cartridge into and then that same phono preamp's outputs into a line-in input on your Bryston 2B preamp.
Grado > new MM phono amp > Bryston 2B-MC preamp line input.

New MC > Bryston 2B-MC phono input (set rear switch to MC mode).
Most moving coil cartridges are low compliance, and are meant to be used on a low compliance tonearm. I doubt the JVC would be equipped with a low compliance tonearm. A more suitable MM cartridge for the JVC (if it’s a direct drive) would be a shielded body cartridge like those from Audio-Technica and Ortofon. My experience with the Audio-Technica VM540ML (line Contact stylus) is very good on Technics turntables that have mid-high compliance tonearms. Not sure about the BIC, but if it has a low compliance arm, it would probably be more suitable for a MC cartridge. Keep in mind that you will need to spend at least double what you’d pay for a good MM cartridge just to have sound quality on par, then you must also factor in a new MM phono stage for the remaining MM.  
I have a Denon 103 mc in use on a Grace 707 arm. And a 103R on the Pioneer PLX1000's medium-mass arm. Both sound fine! I have yet to try out some of my other mc cartridges on my two heavier Fidelity Research arms - an FR29 and an FR54.

You're confused - there's really no such thing as a "low compliance tonearm." It's a pickup arm's mass and damping that determine its suitability for a specific phono pickup compliance. Believe me, you don't want a compliant pickup arm.
