large value wirewound resistor...

contaxchen · 14th April 2004, 09:33 PM

HI,
I am trying to clone the Matisse fantasy preamp.... Yeah, it's quiet popular now.
My problem is that I can't find large value wirewound resistor for the preamp's anode. I need one for 24k and the other one for 120k.
I need only two pair. I don't know if PRC company wants to take this small order. Anybody wants to do a group buy or knows where to buy this type of resistor somewhere?

Before this project, I have never seen such a large value resistor.

Any suggestion?
Yeah. It's quiet strange. Why people want to cut the B+ voltage by half in this way. This usually would cuase some noise.

What wattage and max voltage? 'Large' is not good enough.

hi,
Sorry... I am looking for one pair of 24k, 5w, 500 and the other pair of 120k,5w, 500v.
I can't find those .
Thanks for looking. Do you have some for sale?
