Hi, this might be what someone of you might be looking for.

It's a Log-Pot for 5 chanels that can be driven via a DC-motor. Naturally, it can also be turned manually.
There's also a Balance-Pot with it.

Plus, there's one funny thing: A red LED mounted inside the hollow shaft where the (big shiny) knob is to be put on. Along with some kind of light-conducting device one could make a nice volume-knob.

Both, the volume-pot and the balance thingy, are Alps.

I think the volume-pot is 5k, but I'm not sure; will have to measure and post later.

Before someone asks: I've only got one set (vol+bal) and there won't be another one, sorry.
They come out of an old (~7 years) Sony surround-receiver.

I'm located in Austria, that's Europe.

:drunk:, David

Well, that's an interesting question.
Enough to make me able to buy an Alps stereo-pot.
A 50k motorized Alps stereo-pot is somewhere around 30EUR, maybe <40$. (RS-Comp...)
I don't know. In your case, we've got to consider shipping-costs as well. But most important is that it'll belong to someone who can use it.

For me it's 04:46AM, I'm completely :drunk:
