No there is not any cartridge loading adjustment on the Ypsilon VPS 100 I am using Step up transformers Ypsilon MC 16 L and MC 10 L .MC 16 L give 24 db gain 200 ohm load . MC 10 L give 20 db gain 500 ohm load
I havent heard Allnic or Phasemation , but I just purchased a new Ypsilon VPS 100 MK 2 with matching SUT’s MC 16 L and MC 10 L and for me the sound is magical , I have played around 100 hrs on it so far
