In Reply to: Question about capacitance loading...eq-ing the sound of your cartridge? How does this work? posted by Mr Blue Sky on June 18, 2012 at 15:01:59:
Typically adding small amounts of capacitance boosts the upper midrange and rolls off the treble at the very high end (15kHz to 20kHz). If you add enough, the treble will start to roll off substantially at a lower frequency, but you don't want that. Take a look at the graph Werner posted plotting changes in frequency response with different capacitance loading with a Shure M97xE (see link below). If anything adding capacitance will boost your Ortofon in the upper midrange region you already find exaggerated and do little, if anything, in the bass region where you want to see more emphasis.
