Denon 103R load settings w/Moon LP5.3


I am looking for load settings on my phone stage, Moon LP5.3, with my Denon 103r cart.

Was wondering if you had advice on resistance and capacitance settings. I've included the supported MC options I have on the phonostage:

Resistance: 10,100,470,1k,47k
Cap: 0,100,470

I appreciate the response.

A couple of follow up questions:

- I’m using balanced XLR out that add 6 dB gain. Do you recommend the 54dB setting getting me to effective 60 dB? Or the 60 dB setting getting me to 66?

- In general, what are the trade offs between 100 and 470 ohm? Which should have higher resolution? Noise floor?

thanks again
