Volume pot specs.... Need some info here!

[The Fuxtor]

Looking for a 250k volume pot, and I've found one that's very similar but I'm confused on the specs?? Take a look here.....

 

[The Fuxtor]

Does this equal a 200k pot?? What is the "1Z" ?

 

[sanjib]

I think for a 250K dual gang pot, each gang should have 250K.

What's the 100k + 100k all about?

 

[sanjib]

I think it is a 100kohm dual gang pot.

 

[The Fuxtor]

Well , 200k ohm was close enough I figured, but 100k just won't work I don't think..

There are some new 250K dual gang pots on eBay, one is expensive one is in the middle. Don't know how good are they.

I need the extra 2 gangs for balance as well...
Too bad, the one I found was almost identical except for the specs....

 

[sanjib]

So you need a 4-gang 250Kx4, balance and volume together?

Yes. For a Sansui AU-7900

Sansui pot...




Realistic pot!!

 

[sanjib]

But the part of the SM you posted showing 100K for each gang it should be 100Kx4

 

[sanjib]

I think the SM is for the realistic one!

 

[sanjib]

What is the problem with the original?

It is!

It doesn't go silent on one channel...
I opened it up and the carbon tracks are worn out

 

[sanjib]

I think you have to keep eye on eBay!

You might try 100K ones, you may need to do some calculations. Check this thread: https://audiokarma.org/forums/index...-impact-of-using-100k-instead-of-250k.777718/
