Pass XP-17 and Hana ML loading question

it is what it is, I make it sound te way I like it so I'm not gonna debate anymore why is it like that.

Interested in a Hana ml. I’ve  got an Audible Illudions 3B with the John Curl designed mc stage and fixed 47,000 resistance input . AI says their tests show low output mc’s work better at 47,000, with their design. Base on this thread, I guess I’ll have to just hold my breath if I order an ml !!

@laginz  well with 47K fixed load you might be SOL, I've tried to push it as hard as I can and on my pre amps Pass XP15 and XP17 ML wouldn't take more than 440 Ohm on XP15 and maximum  1K Ohm on XP17. I tried 47k but it wont take it no matter what I do.

SSG, I think we established that your experience with loading your MC at 47K ohms, namely that it sounds BAD, is so unusual as to be considered "unique".  So I would not warn others against loading at 47K ohms.  John Curl and Audible Illusions knew what they were doing.  47K ohms should work just fine. Lower R loads work fine too and are subtly different from SQ at 47K ohms, in all my 40 years of experience. Therefore it is also legit to find that you prefer a lower resistance load; many others do. Laginz, you are most assuredly not "SOL".

@lewm Ok I find it weird at list, I will work with that again, how I have more reasons than ever since I got the Unami Red and I will be comparing it with the ML on the same preamp. Let me know what you think about the ML sound at the 47K load, it seam to me like distortion, overload of bass with the fuzzy bluer in low mis range frequencies I mean around 1KHz. When I drop the load on my ML down to 1KOhm all goes great also all loads 1k and below works great. Gain I have set up at 67db
