Yes indeed this little $499 phono preamp will give you great results with any phono cartridge.
It can be set for MM or MC and in the MC mode the gain can be changed up or down from 54 dB to 60 db to 66 dB. Also the input load can be changed from 30 ohms to 1K ohms with many steps in between.
Split passive EQ, no capacitors in the direct signal path (sorry about that capacitor rollers out there), external very quiet 120V AC to 16V AC step down power transformer (no linear power supply noise), all 1% quiet metal film resistors, and more. Explosively dynamic due in part to LME49600 current buffer output stage with .00003% THD and 2000V/uS slew rate.
Reviews coming soon in The Absolute Sound and Tone Audio.
Thirty day satisfaction guarantee and 3 year parts and labor warranty. Call us at 651-330-9871 for more info.
By the way, it can be built into any new AVA preamplifier for $329 because extra case and power supply are not needed for this application.
