This pot have the same quality as DACT, don't touch it.

Even DAC uses Elna switches as far as I know....

The resistors are SMD type and many people prefer the Dale..

So I see also no reason to change this pot.

the elna are superb quality, especially for the money and if you contact them directly you can customise the stops and switching behaviour. if you want to bling it up, find the positions you use most often and replace the smd resistor with ASMP texas components naked Zfoil SMD resistor. its better than DACT imo but similar to some DACT models, maybe even manufactured for DACT
