step up transformer?


I am running an ortofon silver meister on a Thorens TD-124. I have a Fosgate signature phono pre and am wondering what type of SUT I should use with this set up. I do not think I am getting the most out of the Ortofon at this stage.

Fromunda,

You can look up your cartridge specs on vinyl engine it says your carts output impedence is 6ohms.

Good 2nd hand step ups are Denon AU340, this has a 3 ohm setting and a 40 ohm setting for Denon 103 series cartridges. The 3 ohm setting would be ok, A U-Bros 5 (L) would be very nice in your price range. For more selections you could get a Ortofon T-30 but i have never tried one.
