Gain for Moving Coil Cartridges


In a recent thread recommendations were solicited for possible MC cartridges for a Phono amp with 20db of gain. The cartridge I offered has an output of .4mV. Several replys indicated the two would not work very well because of insufficient gain. Is there any simple rule of thumb or explaination of the gain to output relationship?

Sheesh, as soon as i read your question, 60 dB's of gain came to mind. I guess that great mind's think alike : ) Sean
