Hey Brian,

I had 5 preset options on my Trio. I found 390 sounded best. The other closest options are 300( too thin) or 510 (too muddy). Right now I’m running 400. I’m very close but not perfect. I’m hard on myself 😞 

The Sussurro specs read 450 ohm.

Steve, I corrected my post. Peter recommends 470 min or more for the MIMC and also the Sussarro. Both have the same output at .4. 

1K gave me that ‘sparkle’ vs 470.

On well recorded albums, SQ is darn good save for my wish of more expansive SS. 

Maybe the Audia Flight is showing faults in recordings more than the Trio?

save for my wish of more expansive SS. 

LOL @slaw

I just checked out 470 vs 1K on the Trumpet again to check. The ‘new’ 12au7 CBS Hytron’s I installed bring some more sparkle by themselves vs the Brimar’s I had in. The Hytron’s makes the 470 setting better than before…..but still prefer 1K.

Really, loading is all seasoning to personal taste. There is really no objective right or wrong.
