Cartridge Loading for a phono pre amp


Hello,

I have recently acquired a phono pre amp recommended by Michael Fremer.  It is “THE VINYL”, from QHW audio, Spain.  It got a great review.  I have a Benz Micro Glider rated at 1.1MV.  I have no idea how to set the dip switches for MC Load impedance for this cartridge. The options I have are as follows: 47K, 1K, 560R, 470R, 100R, and 47R.  I have a solid state amp and pre-amp, and also have a sub that I use, rarely.

Any advice would be most appreciated!!

50K ohms, all inputs. (Magnetic phono may have any value from 10 ohms to 100K ohms substituted. Also has provision to add input capacitance for matching certain magnetic cartridges.)

The preamp has a 49.9K resistor to ground, but has other elements in parallel. It measures out at 47K.

You know we can do this all day.

In the other side you did not gave us the answer to what you posted before:

 

" can easily get you outside of this target window ( ideal resonance frequency range. ) "

Sure I did. Whether you are able to understand what I posted is another matter.

Dear @imhififan  : Rigth now you can look the Telarc test LPs ( Omnidisc. ) and the Ortofon in ebay. The one Ortofon to go is that where you read: !" direct cut ".

 

Other nice  characteristic of both  is that comes with live recorded MUSIC and this sole fact makes both desirable items.

 

Other LP that we can use not only for tests but to enjoy music are the Opus label series.

Where ? and don’t try to distract with other kind of information or other question: JUST SHOWS THOSE NUMBERS AND LOMC CARTRIDGE MODELS WITH TONEARMS where appears that its resonance frequency is 9hz-10hz and when you change the loading " can easily get you outside of this target window ( ideal resonance frequency range. ) " of 7hz-12hz.

Obviously you can't win and certainly you can't provide scientific proof either due that "  I've yet to find any fault with..."
