Part of the marking may be hidden on the underside.
Identify a Resistor in an Audio Research PH3
In just acquired an Audio research PH3
It came with two nice looking Vishay load resistors - But I can't identify them.
They say
Vishay
VTA55
B9T15
that's all. I can find a stat sheet on VTA55 - but the B9T15 isn't enough for my magic decoder ring..any ideas?
Gracias!

OK, I have found the missing markings - it had almost completely rubbed off 2k0000 .5% so it looks like they are 2k ohm resistors, which is pretty weird as the manual calls for resistors that are under 10ohm? I have a hana sl and am shooting for 600-800 http://www.audioresearch.com/ContentsFiles/PH3%20manual.pdf |
At this point all you need to do is remove the 2K resistors and solder in your resistor of choice. If you want to be precise google parallel resistor calculator and use 47K as resistor 1 and and say 700R for resistor 2 and it will calculate actual load. ARC supplied different value resistors to cover common loads for LOMC cartridges. |
