Hi folks,
The volume pot on my Macintosh C24 is failing, so I'd love recommendations for where to obtain a reputable new, NOS or healthy used one. I've gone through the Deoxit routine.
I see a few new options on eBay, but have no idea how reputable those are and Audio Classics doesn't have anything in stock.
I apologize if this is redundant relative to previous posts, but I tried a few quick searches here with no luck based on thread subject lines (and I'm a rank newbee, so maybe searching the wrong forum?).
Thanks for any suggestions!

Mouser sells potentiometers but as you have a Macintosh I will guess you are located in the USA , if so this NJ company sells military spec. and commercial and has dual 750Kohm and 1Megohm dual.
They will also do them to your specifications.

Thanks, I'll try them tomorrow or on Monday. I'll need to check out the details such as Ohm range, spindle size/thread, etc. in order to spec one out from scratch or from their catalog.
The C24 volume pot has a loudness tap which might be hard to find. But if you get desperate and have money to burn.
