...but listeners soon found that there were audible frequency anomalies, as the control was rotated.Think about a wire wound pot. It consists of a coil of wire, wound around a former. Much like an inductor. The pot wiper forms a tap, which moves along this inductor, thus, depending upon the load impedance, the frequency response will vary, according to the volume pot wiper position.
