VPI JMW 10.5i and Dynavector XX2 MK II


It seems that perhaps I should have asked these questions first but better late than never I guess. When I try to figure out things like compliance, tonearm mass, loading, etc. I just end up increasingly confused. So I'm on a quest for at least some other opinions.

a) What do you think about the match between this cartridge and tonearm?

b) I have a Sutherland Hubble which has several possible gain and load settings. What would you suggest for gain and load? For "Recommended Load Resistance" Dynavector says >30 ohms. There are a lot of stops along the way between >30 and 47,000.

c) Damping Fluid - Yes? No? Why?

I have the XX-2 MkII loaded @ 40 Ohms. It is mounted to VPI Scoumaster/JMW 9 and seems to be a very good match.
