Increasing a Low output MM


Hi I have a low output MM cartridge.  I am looking at a low gain phono stage; a gift.

Is there anyway to increase the output of a low output MM cartridge?

Previous posts have suggested that a SUT will not work due to impedance changes produced by the SUT.  

Any other options, other a new cartridge?

Thanks

Consider a step-up-transformer. Come in various flavors, some even adjustable (Zesto). I have the latter, and gives fuller sound, though introduces a bit of transformer hum. So I have to chose between tube hiss from EAT eglow petite PS, or transformer hum from SUT. Cart is Aphelion 2 (also have a SS Zephyr, but have not mounted that on the new naia yet).
