I only have a modest Rega Carbon cartridge since LPs are low on my listening list.
This cartridge has an advertised output of 2.5mV at 1 KHz. I set the level to 3.5 mV after a bit of trial and error. Too low and it started to clip, too high and there was hiss. I also set the RIAA curve to 1953. This provides the best sounding recordings upon ripping with Vinyl Studio
I must have ripped about 300 LPs for friends. All are thrilled with the result.
