Did not realize that Cary offered internal phono stages. Do use their PH-302 and think it is terrific with both MM & MC cartridges. Have always found the 58db (might be a few db less - have forgotten) of gain enough and no reason to go to the higher gain of the PH-302II.

Is it MC capable? The PH-302 uses SUTs for the MC portion, which is one key to how quiet it is. Wonder if they can fit the SUTs inside the SLP-98?

I guess The 302 is well received in the reviews I have read. The xlr outputs are important to me too. Thanks for the replies.
