dynavector XX2MK2 set up question

I find the cartridge tracks best from 1.95 to 2.08 depending on the tonearm.

Like others here I'm loading at 1000 ohms. Also performs well wide open (47K) with some phono preamps.

Dealer disclaimer.

Gotta go with Audiofeil on this one I run mine at 1.85 to 1.95g and no additional loading. I have found the Phono stage has a big impact as to what loading is correct. YMMV

Hi Guys
You guys are right setting at 1k ohms, rock music sounded right on and jazz is just beautiful, switching from my previous PS audio which was so bright that only at lowest setting of 100ohms sounded best, but Aesthetix io signature Mk2 did not sound bright at all at 1k, dyna XX2 setting at about 2.2gm. With mat on. I will be getting SDS for my VPI TT.
Thanks guys
Have anyone try higher than 1k?

I have tried 47K; can't beat 1k - it really is all about system matching. I have recently gone to 2.1g and for me this is almost the right setting, as the bass bumped up considerably - the sound was a little thin before.

For example, playing the Sheffield Drum record, the kick drum is now powerful and very realistic, too thin before. It clearly outperforms the best CD transfer I have heard (and own) - the FIM/DXD mastering http://www.amazon.com/Sheffield-Drum-Track-Disc-Master/dp/B003JG93DC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1303676635&sr=8-1

Again - system matching, so experiment like all of us.
