Soon after upgrading the tone arm, some might recall, I removed the damping/shunt resistors from the DE-250s to get rid of what I thought was a dullness in the upper mid-range.
Since then I added the ZYX cartridge which, during break-in, made me:
switched suspension springs for the new HW-19 dampers
spent many hours dialing in the cartridge,
dis-assembled, tweaked, lubed spindled and mutilated the entire turntable,
measured, moved, re-measured and re-positioned the speakers on several occasions,
swapped amplifiers in, out and back again, and...
now realize that without those 15 Ohms the overall presentation was too bright. Back they went.
Still have the .33uF Cap, though ;-}
Hard to believe the R50 is the bottom of the ZYX line!
