Does this work with moving coil cartridges?

Does this work with moving coil cartridges?
Asked by: AUBREY
Typically moving coil cartridges have a much lower output than moving magnet cartridges and require different amounts of amplification. Since there is no available switch between the two levels and at this price, it most likely would not work for low output moving coil cartridges. It would only work with moving magnet cartridges or high output moving coil cartridges.

question

Just purchased and received. I'm using as instructed for a turntable preamp. What's the deal with the high volume at low levels, increased hum and distortion? FyiThe receiver is equipped with turntable / phono set up if that's the potential problem?
Asked by: Anonymous
If the receiver has an input labeled PHONO or TURNTABLE , then the Rolls VP29 Phono Preamp will be unnecessary and will definitely degrade the signal if connected.

question

What does it mean if the light won't turn on?
Asked by: Anonymous
I don't believe this has a light. Make sure it is grounded to turntable or receiver if phono has no ground.
