In Reply to: RE: Phono Preamp - Why Does it Sound So Low? posted by The Dill on August 31, 2014 at 15:18:48
It's always been this way. I heard that the Shure is rated at 4.0 mV output. I heard that is relatively low and the reason for the low volume (relative). do you agree?

used one myself for awhile and the Behringer is really shy on gain with only 35 db. I think that's as good as it gets with your combination.
No 4mV is not low. My moving coil has 1mV output, however my phono pre has 65+ db gain. What model behringer is it?
PP400. Thanks for your help BTW.
Well, I am stumped. Should all work together and provide decent gain. Try different audio inputs of the receiver, make sure the tape monitor switch is off, mute switch off if you have one. Sorry, I am out of ideas.
Thanks. Tape monitor switch? What is that?
I am not familiar with your receiver, I Googled it and looked at the photo of the rear panel. It has a tape in/out. This loop allows you to hear the tape in real time just as it is being recorded. Now if this switch is engaged, sometimes it mutes the source signal, thinking it is playing back the tape. I don't know if your receiver has this switch, however, I would look for it on your front panel, your remote or owner's manual. Good luck, maybe someone else could chime in with another suggestion.
