I've just installed a new phono cartridge (Ortofon OM20) in an older

I'm not clear about what this does or how to set it. I have found a
capacitance range fro the cartridge, but no such stat for the receiver.
Any clarification would be appreciated.

For technical explanations, others will have to help you, but why not
just set it where it sounds best on a variety of recordings?

So, Jennifer, you think that High Fidelity is point "...where

No, I think that the enjoyment of listening to music in my home is
where it sounds best on a variety of recordings.


I bet, you are inviting noticeable amounts of distortion doing
it thisa way. Of course if it is pleasing to your ears, it must be
hi-fi :-)

Why would I listen to something that is less than how it sounds best to
my ears?
