In search for a compact sized motorized pot

yairf · 19th October 2004, 11:13 AM

Hi all
My name is Yair and this is my first post in DIY.

I am now in search for a motorized pot that will replace ALPS Black in my old Naim preamp.

The space I have available is 50mm by length.

This means that the ubiquitous ALPS Blue (RK-27) will NOT fit in there.
The other option I have is the smaller ALPS RK-16.

Questions:
1. is it any good?
2. any other choices?

Thanks for any help!
Yair

I've got a Rotel preamp that uses an ALPS 16mm 50K motorised pot (probably an OEM version) and seems quite good. Compared to the RK27112MC that I used in another Rotel, sounds similar to me with no nasties.
