What loading with Pass Xono / Helikon SL? Dear Shsohis: The Pass Xono is a very decent phono stage and due to the low internal helikon resistance ( 5.5 Ohms ) IMHO it will be perform very good with a load impedance of 100 Ohms.I owned the Helikon with good success at that impedance load.I... | |

Ortofon tonearms ,Static and Dynamic - Difference?
