phono matching transformer
#2

Hi E.,
Bear in mind that the measurements you see on the Riders is resistance not impedance. The impedance (Z) is the important measurement when you are looking for a replacement. So with being said just for laughs you could try a tube type output transformer, speaker side to the cartridge or a small power transformer like 120vac to 24v or 36v. The low voltage side goes to the cartridge. I mention these thinking you may have them laying around. You could use a microfone input transformer. The those have a multi tap primary from 50 ohms (Z) to 500 or so.
