Default different ohm volume/potentiometer?

what is the difference between various resistence vol/pot?

I usually use 50Ohm Alps but considering trying out the 100Ohm Radioshack model for my modded t-amp?,

thanks,

gychang

I would suggest a 10k -50k pot .... a 500k will probably load the input too much and be noisier .....

should have added K after ohms on the initial post. Will the 100K pot be reasonable?

50 to 100K will likely be unnoticeable.

Cheers!
