Cartridges and phono settings

[brit]

I'm hoping that someone might be able to suggest the correct settings for a Lyra Kleos pickup. I'm completely defeated in trying to understand what the correct settings should be. Any help will be most sincerely and gratefully appreciated.

Hi there tortolita,

Below is the given spec for the Lyra Kleos. So you will need to go into the Dev Configurator and set up your phono input as:

MC
Stereo
Max Level - 500 microvolts (0.5millivolts)
Loading - I would suggest "high" ohms and 0pf

In Advanced settings: set auto wi fi ON (if you leave it at OFF, you get an annoying clicking noise!), set your RIAA option (I use 1953, but that's just my preference), leave sampling rate at 96khz (though you can always play with this setting at your leisure, but the Dev recommended setting is 96khz).

Hope this helps.

David
