analog newbie question


Sorry if this has been asked before - just got back into analog - purchased Clearaudio Emotion pkg that included their Aurum Classic Wood Cartridge - MM. I also purchased their SmartPhono phono stage - find that if it is set at MC versus MM that the sound is much more dynamic forl ack of a better term - realize MC dbs are higher - here's the question then - will I cause any damage to the cartridge, etc if I set the phono stage at MC while using this cartridge?

Thanks

You might want to look into the cartridge loading that would probably be built into the phono stage and would be different between MC and MM settings.
