unless you're making F5 as exhibition apparatus , entirely made in Cpt. Nemo fashion , those trimpots are overkill ....... waaaay overkill
better use them as perfect mono vol. pots , adding one resistor from wiper to gnd
ESP - A Better Volume Control
regular cermet multiturn pots are cheap

I know...Hee-hee!!
Captain Nemo is a great description of where I'm going with this. I want to build something visually stimulating to match the black and chrome finish of my McIntosh MC-30s.

Don't use them. Sometimes overkill is actually too much. This is one of them.
Use those pots somewhere you need the precision, a bias pot being used as a PSU voltage divider is not one of them.
Heck - send me your post and I will send you an entire stick of Bourns trimpots.
