I Need Help With A Discontinued Cartridge

A lot of high output MCs have a 47k ohm impedance load. Makes it easier to mate with standard MM inputs.

Mofimadness is correct . Almost all High Output MC Cartridges have a 47K impedence .

If you are unhappy with the sound and have the capabilities you could experiment with higher impedences of 10K and above .

Thanks Guys! I learn something new EVERY day!!

Not sure that this is correct?
It is certainly the default impedance of many MM cartridges but most MCs, especially LOMCs in my experience, are far happier at impedencas from 100-1000 Ohms?
In fact my Halcro DM-10 preamp phonostage fixes the MC impedance input at 220 Ohms whilst allowing adjustable impedances for MMs from 10K to 60K Ohms.
