if you are vinyl only you can try wiring the channels of the cartridge in series to add the lateral and offset the vertical.

Yes, vinyl only. I'll try the series connection.

Thx

Any thoughts on the best way to do this?

Hi- I’m going to a strictly mono system meaning- one speaker, mono amp and eventually mono preamp. I’m currently using a Fisher 400CX-2 which gives me a few different ways to achieve this using a stereo cartridge and most for my vinyl is not mono. Would a transformer be the best way to convert t...

So in both cases when loading the primary @ 40ohms or 150ohms I'm also going to load the secondary with 47K in parallel with my MM phonostage.

Thanks Dave. Any advantage to loading the 1:36(40ohm) input instead. Also, do I need the R/C circuit added to the secondary for ringing?

This is my first post to the forum. I'm using the 1:18(150ohm) primary of the Cinemags because it is a better match gain wise with my system. I have two cartridges with coil impedance's of 3.5ohm & 8ohm respectively and I would like to experiment using Vendereen's method of loading the primary s...
