Dear All,I have looked over the internet for the answer to my following question unsuccessfully and came across this forum so I thought I'd give it a shot.I recently inherited a Technics SL-10 with the original 310MC cartridge. I was also given by a friend a Cambridge Audio Azur 540A Integrated amp. Having hooked everything up I noticed that the sound is very poor and empty (little base, etc) coming from the TT. I used the same set up (amp and speakers) and hooked up my computer, which played fine. So the TT might be the issue. As the amp does not have a dedicated "Phono" Section I read that a Phono Preamp may be needed. Would this be the case? And if so, I had a look at the Cambridge Audio 640P MM/MC, would you recommend this one for my set-up?Any comments are welcome and greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for your help!
