Anybody out there replace their volume control with a Goldpoint using Vishay resistors?


I'm running an Audion Premier 2 box line/MM pre-amp in my system.
The volume control is getting a little itchy and scratchy, so I'm thinking of upgrading to the Gold Point volume control, using Vishay resisitors. as suggested by ARTHUR SALVATORE ( REFERENCE COMPONENTS-PREAMPLIFIERS ) in his Reference Components site.

Has anyone out there gone with the Goldpoint, and if so give us the spiel on your synopsis.

Arthur talks about V-Cap Teflon capacitors mods in the signal-path. Has anyone experience doing this mod, and if so what's your impression in this area?

I'm up in Niagara Falls, Canada, about an hour & a 1/2 from Toronto, and was wondering if any of the Audiogon community knows a reputable service tech who does this type of service work in my area?


Thx,

Yes, I have, makes a pretty big improvement, but not cheap.

Just as important or maybe more important is replacing the input and output load resistors with Vishays.
As far a tech in your area, can't help there.
