Hi!
I had a terribly worn volume pot on my Accuphase E-202, the two channels were way out of balance for the first half of the pot (balance almost all the way to the left). As I did not find any 250K pots with a loudness tap I decided to use a stepped attenuator with the same value thinking I could always add a tap somewhere on its course. Balance is now perfect but the thing is it's not that simple, it actually uses a fixed input resistor and than connects the output to ground through increasing resistor values so there is nowhere to put a loudness tap.
Is anyone familiar with other ways of adding a louness control and would it be applicable to this case without too much modifications ?
Thanks 🙂
