ARC PH3 Loading for Dynavector 20xM

Hey everyone

I'm hoping somebody can help me out here. I have an Audio research PH3 phono preamp that I'm trying to match with my Dynavector 20xM (VPI 1 mv version) cartridge. Specifically I need some help on loading.

According to the supplied specs the Recommended Load is: "Great Than 1,000ohms"

Any tips on recommended values to try? I'm such a novice that having any tips as far as where to purchase these resistors would also help (apparently Radio Shack is a no no).

The ARC service guy is unavailable right now.

I actually did this before (when i lived in Boston my repair guy loaded it down to 1000ohms but the sound ended up being a bit too dull). I removed the resistors and went back to 47k not knowing I could pick a value between the two.

Thanks in advance!
