Sorry if this has been discussed, I searched for a while before deciding to start a new thread.
I have a current model Marantz AVR which outputs to B&K monoblocks powering front ADS 3ways bookshelves. I just ordered a Technics 100C and am considering my overall setup.
Are measurements of the phono preamp inputs on AVR's ever taken and reviewed?
What data should be considered for comparing my current state vs. adding in a preamp vs. going from a preamp directly to the monoblocks (assuming the inclusion of some sort of switch).
The other rational behind this search is I will be limited to MM cartridges with my AVR, so if I want to use an MC cartridge I will need some additional kit (having fun learning about MC cartridges and step-up transformers/head amps now).
Thanks
