Grado Statement cartridges - load at 47km or lower


Do the Grado statement series - the 0.5mv output cartridges need to be loaded at 47kohm's or can they be loaded lower like normal MC's?

Yes. Lots of normal MC inputs do not have 47K loading including mine, hence the question.
thanks Bob, that's what I was looking to hear. You can use your MC phono stage and use lower than 47k.

Raul, running the ADC into MM stage at 47k. Sounds great, abeit different to MC sound. however been off sick for the last week so not listening to music.
I'll send out a report later - Also got the Ortofon MM we spoke about waiting as well and a Miyajima Shilabe I'll try to listen to this week.

cheers
Raul, The MM stage would not have enough gain for the 0.5mv Grado.

I don't have one, just wondering if I can use my MC stage if I did get one.

cheers
