Hi Dave,
let try this once more...
>>>If you do then you also have to agree that it is the load that determines the current delivered by the cartridge and not whether there is a SUT involved. <<<
Now who can NOT agree, that the load determines the current of ANY generator?
Of course it does do that! But you seem to still miss the main point.
Put that 10ohm load WITHOUT an SUT you get zilch! going to the phono-pre, as I stated. So I say it again, just to make sure.
Put a 10ohm load (a perfect impedance match on the SUT primary as in the given example) you get 20 times the Voltage for free on the secondary side! FOR FREE!
Why, because you tt motor does not even notice the difference in extra work it has to do, that's why.
It wiggles that cart generator just the same, 'cause it has 1000 times more torque/power than is ever needed in any way.
>>> Looking at the situation without a SUT, if we do parallel a 13 ohm resistor with a typical 47K what "mode" will the cartridge be operating in? <<<
Call it 'zilch mode', 'cause you are pumping current through the cart coil and a RESISTOR to no aparent effect what so ever!
Why even ask, just put a short circuit...
The point you seem to have is with the 'mode' description I guess, right?
The cart will NEVER (with out a SUT) be able to pull an equivalent current as with an SUT set-up ---- unless you want now go and listen to a resistor, a piece of wire, 13ohm what ever!
Dave, you try to make some point here that is splitting hair over a naming convention that was NOT introduced by myself, please believe me.
You can take the tires of a car and go on arguing with me that you can still drive with it!
How silly, isn't it?
Greetings,
Axel
