Unfortunately I have no alternative source for the SUT. Would comparing SUT into MM with going straight into MC reveal the quality of SUT?Originally Posted by walpurgis

discarding the coils for now and Using the mc input, I think its marked down as 100 ohms but Ive heard it likes a lot more when not using coils.. try different ones and see at least its easy to do on the emotiva. if using mm it only runs at the usual mm load.

Marco, the boss, is an expert on the 103 so you can always ask him if you want extra info

Will play around for sure. Some people claim that DL-103 via SUT into MM is a completely different ballgame from DL-103 direct into MC. I guess I'll also test that theory while I'm at it.

Yes it should. It will certainly do no harm to try without SUT. You may not get loud volume, but if what you can hear is noticeably cleaner and clearer, then it's the SUT that is clouding things.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Good to know. I'm learning that DL-103 seems to be a special little cartridge. It certainly is making my stereo sound different than anything I've ever listened to. Last night comparing Bach on CD to Bach through DL-103 was interesting. On the CD the musicians sound very polite, all buttoned up, almost as if walking on eggshells. On the turntable they sound raunchy, almost heavy metal/punk, playing with such gusto and abandonment. Haha, I'd attribute that to DL-103! (or, to my vivid imaginationMarco, the boss, is an expert on the 103 so you can always ask him if you want extra info

It should run the 103 loud enough. its got the gain for it I think. Trying a higher load should help a lot .. its inclined to be slightly muffled at 100 in comparison Ive been told. Marco has been using all kinds of 103's foryears so will tell you what to do to get best out of it.

I've checked with my dealer, he claims 103 is showing its best colours at 1,000 ohm.
