Hello all inmates,
i have built a passive source selector, and for lack of money have used a "alpha" brand motorized dual gang pot, which i selected as the best of the lot in the bin at the shop, with closely matched channels.
My question is how bad are these things, i mean they cost $8.95 Australian. I do have a kenwood pre amp (which i use for headphone amp) with an "alps" motorized pot in it, and was wondering if it was worth pulling it out and using it in my passive pre amp.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Mark
