For .4mV with 1 ohm, the maximum ratio is 1:25, if your phono overloads at 10mV. With MC cartridges, a basic starting point is to use an impedance of 10 times the internal impedance to be safe. Therefore the recommended loading will be anything over 10 ohms. There are exceptions like with Denon where lower impedance loads tame the high frequency response. So you will definitely be safe with 1:25 or 1:20. You might be fine with 1:30, if your phono preamp can handle 12mV without overloading.
Looking for SUT for Air Tight PC-1 supreme
Has anyone try any SUT for Air Tight PC-1 Supreme?
With its rather low internal impedance, the only SUT I can think of that should work well with it is My Sonic SUT. I have Ortofon SPU T100 which is supposedly suitable for cartridge with internal imdedance of 1-6 ohm if I understand the spec properly. It sounds quite nice but am wondering if I can do better. Lyra Arion SUT did not work at all when I tried. I have no idea if Air Tight SUT is suitable but Air Tight top of the line preamp has My Sonic SUT built in.
Any suggestion or comment would be very much appreciated.
