Mini Torii w/low output mc cartridge
01/24/10 at 17:11:07
 
Hello,
This is my first post and am interested in  the Mini Torii amp. I listen only to vinyl. I see that the Mini Torii has a built in preamp does the preamp have a phono stage, and if so does it have enough gain to drive a low output mc cartridge?

No phono stage in that preamp. Just a line level. So you would need a phono preamp as well.  I hear Decware makes a nice one! Wink

The input sensitivity of the Mini Torii is 1 volt. Therefore, you need a phono preamp that brings the output signal up to at least 1 volt to have full volume in the Mini Torii.
