Does anybody have a ballpark number for the amplification amount of a
phonograph preamp?

    Not sure why this is here, but to answer your question, around 60 db.
    Don't forget the RIAA equalization curve when you design your preamp.

    I posted to this forum because I could not find the information I was looking
    for and I knew that some you contribute to the forum would have the
    information I was looking for

    I assume you mean from a magnetic cartridge to a line-level input or
    ceramic cartridge input?

    If you hit the library and look for some of the old Sams or Radio Shack
    books you should find a schematic. Amplifier projects were very popular
    back in the mid to late 70's when magnetic cartridges became popular.

    Also, remember not to download the schematic/specifications for it or
    you'll get sued! [noparse]:D[/noparse]
