I have no experience with your cartridge, however you can change the settings on the fly, just don't have the volume of the preamp or integrated amp turned up too much. I have done it many times.

dill, sounds like you own a JD9 II phono stage. If so, the Hana high output cart specs; Output Level @ 1kHz: 2.0mV Output Balance @ 1kHz: Less Than 1.5dB Trackability: 70 um/2 grams Separation @ 1kHz: 28 dB Impedance @ 1 kHz: 130 Ohms Suggested Load: 47 K Omms Michael at Jolida says; I would start with the gain on 2 and the capacitance on either 100 ohms or 300 ohms. The ohm options are pretty obvious, how do you set the gain on 2? |
I do own a JD9 II and I also recommend using old stock Telefunken 12AX7's. I know they are spendy, however my unit has not sounded better with any others. "how do you set the gain on 2?" I don't understand your question. Here is a chart that I used to set mine. http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?attachments/jd9-jpeg.249933/ |

Hi, dill, That chart is one I made years back and is applicable to the earlier version of the JD9, vintage 2006. It appears that the latest version, the JD9 II, has a different configuration for gain so the chart no longer applies, at least for the gain settings. Regards, Tom PS: Here's the chart for the JD9 (2006), located at AudioAsylum: http://gallery.audioasylum.com/cgi/wi.mpl?u=32746&f=jolida_jd9_settings1.jpg |
