Cleaning Alps pot in NAD S-300?

66.242.104.45

Posted by Susan Donaldson on August 16, 2003 at 17:29:58

Is there any way to clean the volume pot in my NAD S-300? I've heard there is a problem with the pot in the S-300's and mine seems to be one of them. It seems the contacts are oxidizing and causing the volume to stick when using the remote. I can spin the knob back and forth several times (hearing scratching through the speakers) until the scratching clears up and the remote works again. This only lasts a little while though and I have to do it again. I bought this used for $900 a couple months ago(produced in 2002) and for a $2200 retail integrated it seems you shouldn't have this problem on a one year old amp... I like the sound (especially for $900) but I may end up selling it and getting the S100/S200 for a little more $ if I can't fix this problem.

Thanks for any help, Susan.
