    Personally I would not want to pair it with MM's having 5 mV or higher output as it is likely to sound a bit hot with those.

    But probably quite alright with 3-4 mV output MM's and would also likely work well with high output MC's that have real world output in the 2.2 to 2.5 mV range and are designed to be used into a 47K input.

    Used to have a Nytech integrated myself in the dark ages.

    Hi Blake

    Depends upon which V15 you mean; there have been many through the ages, most with derivatives. The original was 6mV (too much for your Nytech, I feel). The 4 had a 4 mV output and the 5, a 3.2 mV output. Most of the others were 3.5 mV, which should be okay, with plenty of gain but not a silly amount.
