The Technics SL10 I had 'when' came with a MC cart that had an onboard pre-amp for it, but also had a MC/MM switch at the back....along with an option of running on 12vdc....
One either likes tangentials...or not.
Given what it did then, for me, armed with a carbon brush and a really good antistat device....
I couldn't have done better at the time, and still dope slap self for letting it get away...
....and couldn't be beaten at making The Ritual easier.
