help please. i need opinions of high output carts


i've just switched from a rogue 99 to a marantz model 7 preamp. love the marantz, but my low-output grado statement (4.5 mv on mine) needs replacing with higher output. table is a vpi aries (which i also love); amp is david berning designed audionics of oregon ba150; speakers good old kef 105.2's although i switch to bozak rhapsodies when i need to move more air. any suggestions? i've been recommended a benz micro h2, a van der hul mc2, and a dynavector 20xh. sounds to me like the 1st 2 may be in a higher league but i have no way to really know. HELP!

Hmmm- don't recall offhand the outputs of the three you are contemplating, but the 4.5 mV on the Grado you already have is most definately high output. Doubtful that the any of the other three you mention have significantly higher output. What do you have for a phono pre??
