Higher load is actually unload, try 47k Ohm for your MC, try Vishay Naked Foil Audio Resistors by Texas Components for direct replacement in your phono stage, these are the best audio resistors, will help you a lot with transparancy you're looking for.
Recommend cartridge for pass labs preamp amp and Harbeth 40.2
Hi,
I am enjoying a lyra kleos with pass labs preamp line phono and monoblocks amp with Harbeth 40.2 speakers.
I load it usually at 500 to have an open transparent sound but couldnbe warmer sound anyone recommend different cartridge with my setup
Thanks
Michael

Thanks for the ideas Raul....dealer friend who does not sell cartridges also recommended a koetsu signature rosewood ...intriguing but maybe swings pendulum too far into warmth region I noticed today that if I adjust loading on phono per record 250ohm versus 500 depending on mastering and sound of particular album can nail it right |
