Marantz 3300: Phono Input Gain question

[FrankC0402]

I have a couple of low output MC phono cartridges that I would like to try out with this pre-amp.

Does anyone have gain specs for the 3300? I was not sure if the gain switch on the back also applied to the phono inputs or just the tape inputs.

thanks!

I have a Marantz 1200 integrated which has the 3300 preamp in it. The service manual says " the low level amplifier provides a gain of 40 db" The phono input is only suitable for MM cartridges. The gain switch on the back changes the overall gain by 10 db regardless of which input is selected

Thanks!

I will use a SUT then with this phono section.
