I have 2 cartridges, one is MI and the other is MM, output is 3mV and 4.5mV respectively.

  You would need about 40-50db of gain total including the line stage.
  Has anyone measured the gain of the stock preamp?
  I just looked at this schematic. That thing should have plenty of gain.
  Or are you only using the phono stage? If so, do you have a line stage following it? If so there should be plenty of gain.
  Maybe there is something not working right with the stock unit?
  Edit, I found this "The phono preamp section is more than adequate; it has enough gain and low enough noise, too, to handle very low-output cartridges without transformers"
