Thanks, guys. I assume that the default loading is 47K and I have tried to find specs/info on the Musical Surroundings web site, to no avail. I guess I didn't search hard enough. I think that this pre-amp uses plug in resistors that insert into a pair of RCA jacks adjacent to the phono input. The manual is not terribly thorough- I guess I will have to contact CAT next week.

I've recently picked up a CAT SL-1 Sig for my pre, but my analog set-up seems to lack a certain snap or emotional impact. I'm newly trying analog again and wonder if the certrdige loading may be an issue. I've got plenty of gain, that's for sure. But since I bought the SL-1 used, I don't have an array of loading plugs, and would like some feedback on what to try and buy from CAT. The analog set-up is a SOTA Sapphire w/OL Silver arm and the Benz cart. Any thoughts?
