SuperNova 2
Switches 2-8 control Resistive Loading, which is primarily used with lower-output
•
moving-coil cartridges.
Consult the chart below to find the setting that corresponds most closely to the
•
cartridge manufacturer's recommendations found in the Owner's Manual or at the
manufacturer's website.
Moving-magnet and high-output moving-coil cartridges use around 50,000 ohms.
•
Low-output moving-coil cartridges typically use 1,000 ohms or less.
•
Typically, a low-output moving-coil cartridge should be loaded to ten times its
•
output impedance. Thus cartridges with an internal impedance of less than ten
ohms will be more sensitive to loading settings below 300 ohms, which are
provided in the SuperNova 2.
The factory setting for is 200pf/50,000 ohms.
•
After setting the switches a user may fine-tune the switch settings by ear to
•
personal taste.
Typically, a lower setting provides increased focus and tighter bass, while a
•
higher setting provides more openness.
