moving coil output voltage for cary slp-98


Hi every one I am currently getting ready to purchase a rega rp8 with the Apheta 2 moving coil cartridge. I have a cary cad 120s not mk2 and a slp-98p with a moving magnet phono section. But I have talked to cary about having it changed into the moving coil version. But before I want to send it to North Carolina. Dose anyone own a slp-98p with a moving coil version, and what is the output voltage by chance? I think the Apheta 2 is 0.3-0.5 mV, so any one running a cartridge with the same voltage. And would this be a good match?

Let me know your thoughts or experiences thanx!

If you get the Lundahl step-up transformers installed, it boost the gain up 55db and sets the loading to 100ohms. Couple this to the line stage's 20db gain, the MC section can now handle most MC cartridge with an output between 0.03mV to 1.0mV.
