Just to clarify,

I would guess that the weight of these PEC Precision Series KK's is about 3 ozs. ? and just to clarify the situation unless there are favorable combined shipping charges;please include me out.

This is not a proviso but I have absolutely no intentions of wasting $110 USD shipping on component s' which will advantageous to buy in the future' and whose shipping costs should be a fraction of,I'm in no hurry.

Chris,

I won't be starting my new project for some time and my current Gainclone sounds good so I can wait. I defer to you though.

Hi all,

Is there a firm date for a deadline? At this price point, I will be going for 2 of them, one is a 50k and I have to check a schematic for the value of the other one. Please let me know when the final date is and I'll have the info before then.

Best,
KT
 
Boy, it sure is annoying seeing them listed at $21.96 at e-sonic in quantities of 40.....
I wouldn't mind linear at all, but we need to get different values if they are linear in order to do the law faking stuff. This is driving me crazy!
I they would just find out what is available to them we could order- and cheaply!!
 
I'm a bit uncertain as to whether all of the vendors have been contacted or not. Seems there's some confusion as to which vendors carry what version of the pot and for what price.

Should everyone post the information of the vendors and part numbers they're looking at so the organizers can get a complete list of everyone they should contact? Is there an easier way of doing this?

Anyhow, when the group order happens I'm up for a 50k log, as stated earlier, and then a 100k log as well. If I have the funds at that time, I may get either an additional 100k log or a 1 Meg linear. But two, for sure, at this time.

Best,
KT
 
As you know, I have contacted various suppliers.
Here is an interesting response:


Quantity Description Unit Price
100 Potentiometer Model KKA2531S28 US $22.60
Log taper, 25,000K ohms, resistance tolerance 10%, slotted shaft, 7/8” length
by .25” diameter stainless steel shaft, dual ganged.

Quantity Description Unit Price
100 Potentiometer Model KKA2531S28 US $26.95
Log taper, 25,000K ohms, resistance tolerance 10%, slotted shaft, concentric
shafts, dual ganged.

Delivery : 4 weeks ARO.
Terms : Net 30 days upon credit credit approval. VISA & MASTERCARD
Special order item, non cancelable, non returnable.

I love the idea of concentric shafts.
They have an option for concentric shafts- with the right knob set this is the perfect solution for balance. If both knobs are the same diameter, it is easy to turn them both at the same time. If the balance needs tweaking-then carefully turn one.

I know where to have a set of knobs for concentric shafts made!

I realize not everyone wants 25k pots but I'll bet half of the people do. I can enquire about other values!

Digikey can special order these KKA 25k (or others) pots also, but they are more expensive, unless you order 250 of them, where the price drops to $14.88 each. 50 unit price is $28.55 each

Turns out they gave me the wrong pricing the first time. Here is the correct pricing for the KKA 25k pot from Digikey (asked for the KKA2531R16)

20 $51.87/each
50 $28.55/each
100 $21.57/each
200 $21.57/each
250 $14.81/each

So it looks like Digikey would be a good source to purchase the pots from. I am checking into the 2RV7 version of the pot (military version of the same pot in the datasheet) and will see what the pricing is.
