Hello all, I just received my Bellari VP549. I have a B&O RX2 MMC5 Turntable. Which load capacitance switch on the Bellari would I use?

I dont think I've ever seen it stated - I would just see what it sounds good on - try the switch in the middle first and see how it sounds.

I had the same with an Arcam rPhono - in then end just set it to what sounds good.

Around 150pF
Usually no more than apprx. 200pF
And to make room for the capacitive load of your cable, if you have the choice between 100pF and 200pF, go for the 100pF setting.

On my Bellari VP549 I have 120, 220 and 330. Should I stick with 120?
