wtb: input selecter

[jtktam]

I am (trying) to get all the parts together for B1 buffer.. what I want to is "cheat" and use a multiple input selecter and hard wire it to input1 so that I get 4 inputs.. but I am not sure where I can get one?

if you have one laying around I will buy it off you or you can point me to a part # on digikey / mouser

The Lorlin switches at Mouser are great for the money. They have silver plated contacts, a decent feel, and their size makes them really easy to work with (big solder tabs spaced decently apart). The Electroswitch rotaries from Mouser are popular too. I haven't used them. I have used a Grayhill from Digikey, and it was a little small for my tastes. The fanciest option is to use multiple toggle switches. Both Mouser and Digikey carry C&K, but Electroswitch makes a still decent but more affordable toggle.

came across this while randomly looking for stuff.

Stereo selector switch

dont know if its any good but looks way cleaner than just a switch with wires soldered onto it.

Hi,

I've switched most of my gear over to these:
Digi-Key - CKC7004-ND (Manufacturer - A20615RNZQ)

Good bang for the buck and Digikey doesn't charge brokerage.

Cheers!

ok.. now I am looking at pots.. i want to get 2 seperate ones for left and right but then it would be a pain to adjust them to be the same volume..

any recommendation on pots? 25k? 50k?

100K is the "unofficial" standard for tubeamps anyway.

Cheers!

If you want something like this: Novel Control for B1 (input and level)
Then I'd be willing to sell you a set of boards as I had more made than I will use.
Of course, this will probably cost more because of all the relays, but it would be
very cool .
