Dynavector XV-1s loading question.

I have a transformerless (no step up) phono stage (Wavestream kinetics) with 62db gain.

What would the optimum loading be based on the XV-1s specs?
Impedance= R=6 ohms, L=18 micro Henry
Recommended load=resistance > 30 ohms

I can only adjust the resistive loading.

So what's the problem?

Try around 100 ohms and go from there.

> means "greater than" so try any loading from 30 Ohms and up - which ever one sounds best to you is the right one for you.

Try 500 to 1000 ohms. You just might find a fuller, suppler, more musical and natural sound in that range. At least, that's what I hear with my XV-1S.
