Are there any advantages to mc over mm?


I am kinda lost here, I will ask the audiogon community. With my high output benz wood mc cartridge is there any advantage of using mc side over the mm on my phono stage? Thanks,scott

Additionally, depending on the input sensitivity and headroom of your MC stage, the output of the Benz might cause overload. This isn't likely to damage anything (except your ears, if you forget to reduce the gain control!) but it could cause some audible distortion, particularly on dynamic peaks.

As Stanwal said, listen and decide for yourself which sounds better.
