So....what is the question ?
phono cartridge questions
G'day all, I've just registered and I'm from Australia and I'm very keen on all things vinyl and I've written a fair bit on the subject. My fav cart is the M97xE (I have three actually, all in use....(diferent turntables of course).
Some people love that cart and others don't. I'm in the first category! It is in some respects a quirky but ultimately endearing cartridge. Some of my and others research indicates that the slight roll off in the treble response can be essentially 'flattened' by altering the(resistive) input impedance of the phono stage to around 60 k. I use 62 k. As well I stick to the recommended Shure value of recommended shunt capacitance.
As I build my own DIY phono preamps, it is easy for me to do this tweaking, but realize that apart from capacitance optimisation this would be next to impossible for most vinyl listeners unless familiar with general electronics construction. Many thanks. Regards, Fap.
