Cartridge Loading for a phono pre amp


Hello,

I have recently acquired a phono pre amp recommended by Michael Fremer.  It is “THE VINYL”, from QHW audio, Spain.  It got a great review.  I have a Benz Micro Glider rated at 1.1MV.  I have no idea how to set the dip switches for MC Load impedance for this cartridge. The options I have are as follows: 47K, 1K, 560R, 470R, 100R, and 47R.  I have a solid state amp and pre-amp, and also have a sub that I use, rarely.

Any advice would be most appreciated!!

Dear @imhififan  : Rigth now you can look the Telarc test LPs ( Omnidisc. ) and the Ortofon in ebay. The one Ortofon to go is that where you read: !" direct cut ".

 

Other nice  characteristic of both  is that comes with live recorded MUSIC and this sole fact makes both desirable items.

 

Other LP that we can use not only for tests but to enjoy music are the Opus label series.

Where ? and don’t try to distract with other kind of information or other question: JUST SHOWS THOSE NUMBERS AND LOMC CARTRIDGE MODELS WITH TONEARMS where appears that its resonance frequency is 9hz-10hz and when you change the loading " can easily get you outside of this target window ( ideal resonance frequency range. ) " of 7hz-12hz.

 

 

@cleeds  : " I'm not here to win an argument or provide scientific proof.."

 

Obviously you can't win and certainly you can't provide scientific proof either due that "  I've yet to find any fault with..."

@atmasphere  :You can choose the cartridge with the electrical characteristics you want and  the tonearm you like with a premise: that the resonance frequency in between be: 9hz-10hz. Then tell us from which loading impedance you have to go to stay out of the ideal range of: 7hz to 12hz.

 

Again, don't try to distract in any way and go straigth about. Show what only you know. Easy question.
