A TX-850 is a fairly high-end receiver from the late 1980's, and well past the days of crystal cartridges, both in time and technology.
Agreed, there was a transition period when hi-fi/stereo was evolving in the early '60's that cartridge pre-amps were needed when upgrading to the (then)new lower-output magnetic cartridges, but I don't think that applies in this case.
Thanks for the thought, though...
