Phono setting and MC/MM


Gave a buddy one of my old turntables and it has a MC cartridge.  Will that work on a vintage receiver with just a single Phono option?

I had a mc with both MC and MM but his receiver is just Phono.

Will a MC cartridge play?

Hook it up. Probably be fine just won’t play very loud. If the guy is happy with everything else, pointless to move laterally to another receiver, probably the best move will be to a MM cartridge.  

Hang onto the Hana for down the road, maybe have a decent phono stage that can have it singing.
