I really appreciate the help. I contacted Ortofon and got a really detailed and quick response that I didn't understand. This, on the other hand, helped a lot! So, from what I'm understanding here from the two of you, switching MM (switch 7) to on was correct. Now add switch 2 to On, since I have short interconnects (or possibly switch 1 for longer wires...). So, switch 2 and 7 on and everything else in the current off position? Thanks a ton folks.
Dip Switch settings for Ortofon 2M Black
I just received the new Pro-Ject Phono Box Ultra 500. I am using an Ortofon 2M Black cart. Does anyone know the most desirable dip switch settings ? Here are Cart specs;
Cartridge Technical specifications:
Cartridge Technical specifications:
Frequency range - 20-31.000 Hz
Frequency response - 20-20.000 Hz + 2 / - 0 dB
Tracking ability at 315Hz at recommended tracking force *) - 80 µm
Compliance, dynamic, lateral - 22 µm/mN
Stylus type - Nude Shibata
Stylus tip radius - r/R 6/50 µm
Tracking force range - 1.4-1.7 g (14-17 mN)
Tracking force, recommended - 1.5 g (15 mN)
Tracking angle - 20°
..and here is the dip switch configuration;
1- 220pf
2- 100pf
3- 1kOhm
4- 100kOhm
5- 10 Ohm
6- +3 db
7- MM 40db
8- MC 60db
Currently, I have 7 (MM) on and everything else in the off setting.
Is that ideal for these specs? Help..
Thx very much
