Default Re: Wiring a stereo cartridge for mono

Hi you can wire stereo cartridges in series or parallel.
Parallel retains the original ouput but Mono, series adds the voltage outputs while 'mixing' the 2 channels of stereo signal. Depending on the input impedance one way will work better than the other for your record player.
so wire either (++) (--) or - (+linked-) + where + is the live L/R signal and - is the respective ground
