What are the High, Medium output MC top contenders

BTW, the Dynavector XX HO was discontinued LONG ago, in fact, it is 2 models ago. I seem to recall about 7 years ago. I am clarifying that fact so someone may confuse it with the current model, an XX2 MkII.

Have you considered the Ruby 3H with .7mv output. I'm using an older MO.9 wood bodied Benz with .9mv output into an Artemis Labs PH-1. It is all tubed, no sut's and has a gain of about 52db. It works fabulously!

You may also want to consider the EMT JSD5 or JSD6. They have 1mv output and are very respected.

Thanks All. I'll pick up a Ruby 3H and report my findings.
Any of you encounter not enough gain from you're tube phono stage, lack of dynamics without the use of a step up transformer and therefore looked for a higher output MC's? My experience with step up transformers has been better dynamics and stability of images but at the cost of sacrificing high frequency detail with the music sounding constraint.

I use a Dyna 20X S.V. 1.0mv output without any gain problems.
