Relays for Source Selector

SRMcGee · 9th November 2008, 10:47 PM

Folks:

I'd like to try my hand at building a simple source selection system using 3 DPDT relays and a 3-position toggle switch. There will be 15 VDC available in this project, so relays requiring voltages between 5 and 12 VDC will work. Are there relays that I should avoid? Can anyone suggest a brand and model of relay that won't adversely affect the sound and is available from mouser or digikey?

Thank you,
Scott
