Go one of these for each mono, choose resistance (1kohm-100kohm) depending on the input impedance of your amp, which we don't know.

Thanks George.
that brings me to next question. how to find out the input impedance of the amplifier. the specs page don't specify for my amplifier.
my source is fiio x3 1st gen player which has a line out of 1.5Vrms and output impedance is given as 107Ω (which is typical i guess).

not sure if its capacitor coupled. will try to check with the manufacturer.

All I found
"Each amplifier features JFET inputs (for high input impedance)"
So get the 10kohm, that should do. 20kohm would be better if you can find it in a single.

this talks about patent design. i verified that patent is indeed granted,

not sure how this is different from DACT type pots

as George pointed out earlier and after reading some stuff, i find that its mainly the input impedance of the power amp that should be matched with passive preamp.
i want to keep the system as simple as possible (aka very low budget!) for now. thats why hunting for a decent volume control solution.

Ha, good for them, that's a good idea! They made the gap between the contacts in an s shape to make the switch hit the next contact before it leaves the last one (make before break). This is so there aren't switching noises as you turn it. Nice job! I assume the DACTs are make before break, but the entire switches are of a different design.
