Default LOOKING FOR Pot!

no not that kind......

im looking for a particular pot. it is an alps a10k. it is a lime green color with a splined shaft, horizontal panel mount.

the piece is labeled alps taiwan on the back.

either that or some thing that would be a direct replacement upgrade.

possibly a blue velvet?

thanks,
D

Default pots

Must it be an "A" taper? We have thousands of new pots of this 9mm style in stock

Default INTERESTING

hey fellas, i noticed that my other piece has all 3 pots as the B taper. so now im curious as to why this is. i called a buddy that has 3 of the same pieces of equipment. same thing. some had the 1 had all A pots, 1 had all B pots and 1 had a combination of the 2 A pots and 1 B pot. the B pot being on the highpass.

i did notice that the volume was significantly louder on the pieces with the B taper.

any thoughts?

the processors with the B pots have all been modified with burr brown chips might that have anything to do with it?

Thanks
