No, you have a big problem. Not me. Wanna go back and forth on this? I cannot imagine why you think I hit on you simply by pointing out a possible mechanism for one effect of loading on an MC cartridge. I was trying to make a neutral contribution to this discussion, but I realize it may have seemed to you that I was taking Ralph's side against your attack. I really wasn't.
Thanks for the correction on the recommended loading for the Lyra cartridges per the Lyra website, but is it not the case that Jonathan Carr has suggested 47K ohms for LOMCs, in this forum? If I'm wrong there too, I would like to know about it. In any case, I am far from "recommending" a 47K load. As you may recall, I discovered that I liked 47K for one of my LOMCs by accident, because I forgot to adjust the load at the phono input one evening before playing music. So I reported my surprising result here. Unlike yourself, I do not try to tell other people what they should do. And the cartridge was not riding in either of the two tonearms that I own and you hate, on the evening when I made the observation that there is some merit to 47K loading in my system. And why does THAT make you so furious?
