WTB: 10k Stereo Attenuator ($5-$20) (US)

[OneManDIY]

Hello all,
I am collecting parts for a headphone amp project and I will need a 10k attenuation/pot.

This is the project:
NP-100v12: DIY 12AU7 (ECC82) Tube / IRF510 MOSFET Headphone Amplifier

Thanks!

anyone, looking for a used one.

Preferably a ladder type with a make before break?

Maybe even your Blue Velvet that you are not going to use? lol

These are quite fine,
DACT from lasercollection | eBay

^ I have a 10k from that seller. About the best you will ever find for that money.

Nice find!!!

I have come across these at one point I remember seeing that "S" connection trace somewhere but I guess I was too focused on getting one of those bigger Trough Hole resistor Ladder Types.

I was going to buy this 10K 24 Step Ladder Type Stereo Volume Control Attenuator but the resistors look like Stackpoles or no name brand ones and I would have liked a Dale Vishay ones. Also shipping adds up too so it makes it like $24-$28

I wanted somethign like this 100K Ladder Type Stereo Attenuator with Dale Resistor | eBay

How does that DACT compare to the ones I listed above?

I will most likely buy it. I like the SMA resistors and shortened signal path.
