It does have enough gain, but sometimes budget phono preamps don't do well with low output cartridges - noise floor too high, too much distortion for such a small signal, etc.
I've listened to an Ania on a similarly priced NAD PP-2. Noise floor equal to my NAK CA-7A pre but lacked the depth of presentation that the NAK has; but I would classify it as very good.
Ania was on a new Planar 3, nice sounding combination but I didn't like it as much as my current Heybrook TT2/LVX/OC-9ML.
