ah with the dino I'd set load to 1k (switch 4 on dip 1 and 2) and amp gain to low mm (switch 4 on dip 3 and 4) this will give a gain of 52db at an output of 1-3mv (mine is 2.8mv) fitting with the recommended load of >1Kohm? Although cart specs say load <1k and switch 4 on dip 3 and 4 is equal to 1k

Sorry, I have not got a clue how well it would sound with your cart and arm but I have just bought a Dino and then bought another with the upgraded power supply so will have one going spare (I liked the sound so wanted the upgraded PSU).

I'm sure the Dino will sound better than the phono you are using now as it has lots of adjustments on the bottom. Even so, it could be worth trying (spending cash) the P75 that the others are saying will work well with your cart. Trust the advice? You asked for it! Or are you waiting for an answer that fits an idea you already have in your head?

It could be time to get the credit card out!

Trichord Dino? :)
+1 good sounding and very versatile with its multitude of setting switches ... and stick a Never Connected PSU on it to really make it sing. :^
