[X4U] phono to CD

[Crandon David]

Hmmm....you're going to have to refresh my memory here. What I remember 
is that a ceramic cartridge has much higher output voltage than the 
usual MM (moving magnet) cartridges, so a preamp isn't necessary, but 
the RIAA Eq curve is a function of the pressing of the record, and is 
independent of the type of cartridge, whether it's MM, Ceramic or MC 
(moving coil).
