Can anyone recommend the loading for a Denon 103R MC? I am using 100ohms but was wondering if anyone had tried higher loads?

Thanks

Thanks Doug. Is that 47 or 47k and was that done by listening or any particular reason. I have read that some advise over 200ohm for this :dunno:

I've used a 100 ohm and been happy with it but there's no harm in trying different loading and what sounds best will depend on your other equipment/what sound you prefer. People's recommendations usually only get you in a good ballpark and if you want the best (to you), it's time to play.

I haven't used my 103R in a while but have been intrigued by the talk of denuding, brass mounting plates and wood bodies. Almost makes me want to drag it out and start tweaking. :)
