Lyra Delos Cartridge Loading Recommendation for Whest PS.30R

Hello,

I know virtually nothing about loading.  I barely even know what it means!  Can you please recommend a load setting for my Lyra Delos with Whest PS .30R?

The load options on the Whest are 100, 220, 470, 1k6, 15k, 47k

I see a lot of varying viewpoints on the web, so I thought the members here may be the best to ask.

When I change the loading, is there something in particular I should be listening for? 

Thanks!
Mark

You have an excellent cart.

i say: Loading is like a tone control and is set by user (ear) preference.

Lyra says: Recommended load directly into MC phono input : 91ohms - 47kohm (determine by listening, or follow detailed guidelines)???

 (In this question and comments, although the cart is all together different, the theory is very useful and the sources are very credible)

Happy Listening!
