Source for resistors for an acoustech/sutherland phono preamp


Could someone give me a link to buy resistors 47k and under. I bought some but they are much bigger than what they replaced. I have an Ortofon black that I’m tweaking by using resistors under 47k. I’m trying to expand the bottom end. The ortofon specs call for 50k to 200k loading. I’ve read that under 50k is optimal. I know this sounds wrong and contradicts Ortofon but I can't  get the bottom end that my Dynavector 20x2 had. The resistors are an easy switchout but the ones I got from Parts Connexion are huge. About 10 times or more larger. Would the size affect performance?

Size does not affect performance only space.

Most likely you ask for 50-200ohms for mc loading.

Check metal films like, takman, holco, or if you want something more expensive charcroft & vishay both z foils.

A good place to check is Hifi collective and Parts connexion.
