Yes, I meant 47k. I haven't checked the tracking force in a while. The OL arm is a pain in the neck to adjust! But, it needs to be done. I noticed it on particularly bright albums, i.e. Vince G Charlie Brown Christmas. Not an audiophile pressing so highs are not rolled. The distortion is in the form of static on leading edge of highs and lows. Wasn't listening particularly loud either. I have it through my NAD M2 balanced input now (m2 arrived this morning). seems to have gone away but still sounds pretty bright/thin. The gain options are 100ohm mc, 47k ohm mc, and 47k ohm mm on the JC3. But now with the Nad I can knock down the incoming signal but prefer not to because the trade off there is loud hum. Too many system changes all at once !
