You need to try an MC for yourself IMO. I spent ten minutes Googling to find specs for your phono pre. No luck. Do you connect it to a passive or active linestage? I did see the LS37 has adjustable loading and can do MM or MC but that's it. No adjustable gain.

Anybody would need gain specs to properly recommend. I have read threads where people use other tubes in place of the 12AX7 to reduce gain. So get that spec if you can. Did you build or buy a built phono pre? Tube or SS in the PS? I've seen both.
