Hi, Running my mc straight into an mc phono requires 600 ohms and 330 pf loading. However it seems from talking to rob very much lower loading is required for a stepup - perhaps 50-100 ohms. Can I do without the capacitance altogether with a stepup or should I put some in? Also which type of cap is best for loading. I guess a manley steelhead would be handy right about now. Nick.
