RE: mx110 new volume control

Posted by 2con on January 6, 2017 at 03:28:55:

Yes Dave ,i have done it the same procedure several times during

the years ;it works for a little then the orrible scratch is

coming back ;i think that the carbon tracks of the potentiometer

are on the last leg ;i own mx 110 since 1990 and i used it for

long years ;it was my first tube and vintage unit and would like

to have it in pristine condition again .

It was checked on ordinary basis by a knowledgeable technician

and he said that i need a new potentiometer (original, if

i dont't want follow the Alps 50 k double pot route )

Thanks anyway for your tip (maybe i will try with the product

you suggest me)
