Information on setting cartridge loading

Much of this depends on the design of the MC, internal impedance and coil/magnet structures; some cartridges respond audibly to changes in loading (Koetsu) while others it seems to make very little difference (Lyra).

Lyra will sound different 47K vs. 100Ohms, but will not sound different 100Ohms vs. 1Kohm. I would not recommend loading Lyra <100Ohms.

Thank you all. Marakanetz, I have a Lyra Titan-i cartridge and am using a Graham Slee Reflex with Graham Slee Elevator which has various settings for different load.

I load both my Lyras at 100 Ohms; tried it once at 75 Ohms with the Rhea and this was not good.
