Best loading for Monster Cable Sigma Genesis 2000

I have the MC version of this cartridge, which puts out about 0.2 mv. I recently purchased a Lehmann Audio Black Cube(the one without the upgraded power supply). I have lost the info packet which came with the cartridge, and would like to know if Timo or others have recommendations for optimal loading of the Monster Cable Sigma Genesis 2000.
Thanks!
