I think the EF86 was for magnetic pickups anyway.

How do you work that out? The Mullard 5-10 and the 3-3 (amonst
others) were ideal for use with a crystal cartridge.

You'd need a pre-amp for use with a magnetic one!

Why not refresh your memory?

You are quite correct. The component values would be tailored for a
high impedance.

The shock and horror, a poxy crystal cartridge feeding a Mullard 5/10.

Here was I thinking it was Shure V15 material :-(

Thanks for the enlightenment and the circuit of course.
