Settings for the Jolida Phono Preamp JD9 II


Hello,

I just acquired the Jolida Phono Preamp JD9 II.

I seem a bit confused by the settings.

 I have a Hana SL MC Low Output Cart.

Is anybody familiar with this preamp?

I have the manual and I think I have it set right but would love some feedback.

I am using the High Output to my Integrated.

For the Din Adjustments, I set it to the following:

- Gain Switches, I chose MC LOW High Gain Output - ON
- There is no setting exactly for 400ohm or slightly higher, so I set the 100 + 300ohms settings to ON
- For the Pico Fareds switches, they are all OFF.

My understanding is that these would be the ideal settings but not sure.

I am listening to music now and it all seems good I think although I think the gain might be high as the volume on my Integrated is pretty low and it already sounds high.

Still learning all this stuff.

I was using a Sim Audio Moon 110lp V2 and once I have all the settings dialed in on the Jolida, I will be doing a lot of comparing.

Thanks

Jay

Thanks for the suggestions.

I also talked to Michael Allen from Jolida.

I have now set my preamp to

- Impedance: 1K ohms
- Gain: MC LOW High Gain Output
- OutPut: High Output
- Capacitance: 0

I think I like it there for now.
