Ah, so MC cartridge output is measured (for specs) open? Didn't know that, Thanks.

That implies that the typical "how much gain do I need?" question really ought to consider loading; at least for LOMC ... I assume for a MM the 47k load dwarft cartridges's impedance.

So for a 103 with 100 ohm loading (assume an active phono stage) the load "sees" about 70% of the voltage (I'm assuming the coil impedance of 40 ohm)?

Is that about right?
