Load Settings for Dynavector 20XL?


Installed a new cart today and I'm confused what type of load setting to use on my Rhea.

Can anyone help?

The Dynavector sheets says:
Impedance: R=150homs / 5 ohms
Recommended load: >1000 ohms / 30 ohms

My Rhea load settings are:
75
125
250
500
1k
2.5k
5k
10k
47k

Thanks!

I think if you look at the specs closely, the ">1000 ohms" part is referencing the requirements for the high output version of the cartridge. The low output cartridge requires loading greater than 30 ohms. I currently have my 20xl set at 121 ohms on my Nova Phonomena and it sounds very good, but I'm still experimenting as well. I would suggest experimenting with the 75, 125 and 250 settings for starters, but I'm sure others with more experience will chime in.
General rule of thumb courtesy of member "Nsgarch":

25 x 5 ohms = 125 ohms

+/- 50% of 125 ohms is a range of about 75 ohms to 200 ohms.

Start with 75 ohms, and increase to 125 or 250 ohms until the bass sounds
right.
