C32 Pre & MR74 Tuner Knobs

Nice modernization. Straight end caps too. I wonder what the lower outer knobs could be- they sure look like 2205/2200 knobs to me.

Chris must be spinning...:D
I didn't notice the C34V endcaps.

I'll take a guess and say they are volume or Input selector knobs from a C33. The mode knob is also possible. It is slightly smaller than the input selectors. ....Maybe not though. The volume control is Alps and the two rotary input selector switches are Alps also. Probably metric. The mode switch is a rotary wafer switch that might be from Mallory, so US.

I'd be surprised if any of the older type silver knobs were metric but I haven't owned them all so I can't say.

I have noticed a difference in the width of the outer ring between the larger knobs used on the C32 compared to the MC2205/2200 knobs- the ring on the C32 knobs is slightly thinner but it's extremely subtle. Either one fits the shafts of a C32, MC2505 and MX113 is all I can say.
 
The kids media room has a MR74 with current production knobs. Lower left is a MA6100 with MC2205 era knobs. IMG_9653.jpeg

I'd be curious to know how long ago the knobs were converted. Who did the conversion?

So...

I'm five years late to the party, but can someone sum up what knobs I might be looking for to match my recently acquired MR77 to my C34 and 2205?

Thanks!
 
I found the older style Mc knobs look great on silver faced equipment. Much better than The Fisher brown plastic ones.
