The Accuphase should be able to handle Zyx with 70 db of MC gain. Your Chorus preamp has an additional 20 db of gain.

Agree
70db gain is enough for .15 mv cartridge

Who can say if the differences between the Zyx Ultimate Dynamic and Zyx Ultimate 4D is justified ?

Actually it’s real output is 0.21mV not 0.15. Anyway 70dB would be enough (gain selector on). Normally ZYX cartridges like high loading so 300ohm seems like a good starting point.
