I don't know the gain of the Musical Fidelity X-LPSv3 and I looked around and nobody has the gain listed as a simple db of gain figure. In fact, I looked at a dozen websites and they all carried the same words as each other website.
I can tell you with the Denon and the AT (I've owned them both) you need between 58 and 63 db of gain. My phono stage has 60 db and it worked fine with both of these. I tried the Denon with 53 db of gain on a different system and it was a tad short of gain.
