Re: MM versus MC
Yep the ortofon vms range used to have a set of different pf and nf value capacitors you could buy to tweak their f/r. The Rload is not too much of an issue, i use between 39k and 47k on my cole lcr phono stage, capacitance is more the thing to watch. There is a good thread on vinyl engine where som...

If some tin foil stops it use some guitar pickup shielding tape for a less conspiracy theorist hat style solution. I have some 4 inch wide tape for this somewhere

I have a dynavector dv20x2h high output which is one of my all time favourite carts, both the high and low output ones. Thats on the roksan And another of my favourites, an audio technica at...
