Dynaudio Focus 110.....Integrated amp????
I had a pair of dyn focus 140 in the past. I used a mf a308 integrated and a308 cd player. That was a very good combination. At the time I had a sim i5 in another system. I set up the i5 with the 140's just for a listen. At lower levels it was ok,...

Is NAD C372 Integrated good match w/ Maggie1.7's?
A friend of mine had the C372, MG 1.6 combination. Sounded great. He then replaced the NAD with a Vincent Audio SV-236 MK ii hybrid integrated. The sound was very noticeably improved. It isn't that much more costly, well worth it. 
How to set Sutherland 20/20 phono stage?
You can Google "Sutherland 20/20 manual" to get a copy of the manual. You can easily find the Dynavector cartridge specs on Dynavector's website. Follow the 20/20 manual's directions for the Dyn's specs, and off you go.
