Phono (0.1- 0.22mV+) or step up for LOMC?
It's a pair of Dynaudio BM5 MKiii. It sounds like a big improvement after I went balanced, so I want to keep it that way.

Phono (0.1- 0.22mV+) or step up for LOMC?
Thank you for all the replies. I changed the unbalanced cables to balanced. The cables need to burn in,the octaves are incomplete, but it feels like I got 5-10db and overall better sound quality, so that's gonna be like that.I decided to buy a pho...
