Ever since I built my Bottlehead Foreplay III preamp a few months ago, I yearned for a remote volume control solution. After conversing with John Chapman from Bent Audio, he put together an Alps motorized potentiometer that fit perfectly into my preamp. I imagine this would be a great solution for other folks looking for remote volume control solution for other pieces of equipment.

Very nice; looks kind of familiar!
Those motorized pots are available from lots of junked Sony (and other) BCP receivers and CD players.
