I'm playing with a couple of different cartridges for the turntable. I have a Pfanstiel 51-3, and one of those common as dirt ceramic cartridges that are on EVERY modern turntable-like-object.
The load resister for the current cartridge is 150k ohms. I probably need to change that out to a different value for a ceramic cartridge, but I'm not sure what. The volume control is the next item in the circuit, and that is a 2 meg.
Thoughts? I could always just put everything together and sub in a 2 meg pot for the load resister and adjust that until it sounds good, and then put in the closest value I can find.
