Q: 5. Specs say max gain 48 db. Where would that be on the gain control? at +10? Additionally... how much gain is at 0 ?

A: The specs for the ART Precision Phono Preamp show a different maximum gain level rating for MC (Moving Coil) and MM (Moving Magnet) cartridges: 43 dB (MM) and 63 dB (MC). There is a switch on the front panel to select the input type and choose the cartridge style you will be using. You would then adjust the Gain Trim control and set it so that the Clip LED light stays green and only peaks occasionally as red. The actual gain levels will vary depending on the cartridge that is used and its specific output level.

A: No, this device doesnt have any capability to level independently. However, the bubble levels make it very easy to level the ball head. The tripod base doesnt have to be level, just the ball head on top.I have one other caution about this product. Mine did not come with the mounting plate that is clearly shown and described on both the B&H website and the Cinegears website. I notified B&H and they had me return the item for a replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement also did not have the mounting plate. I consider this false advertising by Cinegears and subsequently (probably unknowingly) by B&H.
