Quick vid to test how much louder the cd is than my phono. My Nagaoka MP11 cart outoput is 5mv. Song, Ashes to Ashes single 45 vinyll and Album Scary Animals
Thankyou, just woke up here in Australia. I think the Nagaoka Cart is a great budget cart, got mine from USA, cheaper than buying in AU at the time. Phono slightly quieter, less bass. I think the 5mv and phonostage might be the reason it's almost as loud as the cd input. Grado Gold was 5mv also.
Nice!! How do you like that Nagaoka cartridge? I can't believe it sounds as loud as the cd. Is it a combination of the cartridge and the phono stage that makes it sound that loud? My DL160 won't ever sound that loud--output is 1.6mV. I forget the Grado's. Nice video. Off to work now.
