loading impedance

Eralff,

I own this cartridge. It's on a JMW 12.5 arm on a VPI TNT Mk. 5. I use the Pass Aleph Ono phonopre.

What worked best for me were loads between 249 and 475 (Ono switch sets). I finally settled for 322.03. These are by no means the standard, it's a matter of long trial and error but, in the end, it pays off.

Best regards.

You have to take into account the electrical characteristics of the tonearm cable and interconnects used when setting the loading characteristics inside the phono stage. As Vvrinc stated, this may take some trial and error testing to see what works best in your system. Sean

I can test the phono section for different impedance but with some difficulty. I have to purchase resistors and unscrew two screws in the back and put new ones in, unfortunately there is no easy dial like some phono sections. will the trial and error be totally the sonics of normal album play? Having not done this yet what can I expect from different resisters? The preamp/phono section is a atmasphere mp1 and the turntable is a walker, possibly the brands names can lend more information. thanks for taking the time to help out.
