Regarding the Wall Audio Opus 120, out of curiosity I took a look at its description and at a German-language review of it which are provided at the Wall Audio site. I see no indication of what its gain is for either of the two settings of the front panel switch that is provided for selection of moving coil (as opposed to moving magnet) cartridges. "70 db" is indicated as the signal-to-noise ratio it provides for LOMC cartridges. (That being a spec which is generally useless, IMO, because as in this case those numbers are usually provided with no indication of the "weighting" and/or the signal levels they are based on).
For moving magnet cartridges there is an indication which seems to indicate that 2.5 mv in results in 777 mv out, which is a relatively high gain (for MMs) of 49.8 db. But no such spec appears for LOMCs.
@tooblue Did the manual provide an indication of gain for LOMCs?
