Phono Pre question

Hey guys, I am looking to buy a phono pre, so I can hook up my table to my Harman Kardon (eventually Dodd). I was looking into the Nad pp2, which I have read good things about. However, I have a low output MC cartridge (.4mV). Will the Nad pp2 be able to handle this? If not, what are some other Idea's. I have looked into the Jolida Jd9A, which also gets good reviews, but at $450, that is about the max that I would like to spend. Thanks
Chris

Says MM/MC compatible, so it should be fine with .4mv. That is pretty standard MC output. -
Well, we will find out soon. I ordered a pp2 for $80 mint off of audiogon. Hopefully it works out. If not I will offer it up for here in the flea market for what I payed for it.ChrisIntegrated Amp: Cary SI-300D Processor: Marantz SR7012 Streaming: Bluesound Node 2I 4K Bluray: Panasonic UB820Mains: Von Schweikert VR2Center: Von Schweikert LCR15 Subs: 2 SVS Sb13 Ultra (HT Only) Analysis Plus Cables
