I replaced my pots both left and right in my Quicksilver Full Function Preamp
with the TKD P65CS 100K. The results exceeded my expectation 10x's.
The Alps were ok these are on a whole other level
Well worth the trouble.
I replaced the volume pot on my tube preamplifier.
Replaced the two mono Alps pots in phono preamp with Tocos (Tokyo Cosmos), RV24 units. I heard good things about these pots on other forums. Fair bit of work getting them to fit into the Croft 25R. I had to loosen the tube boards and drill out the mounting holes for the larger threads. The pots were only $26 for both inc tax and shipping. Huge improvement in speed, clarity, solidity, and transparency. I'm blown away.
Well I have to say I bought 2 mono ones on ebay one went scratchy in a short time. I lived in Alaska at the time. So I contacted the Company Kayoko Shinbori, Sales Dept. TOKYO KO-ON DENPA CO., LTD. 56 Orimoto-cho, Tsuzuki-ku Yokohama, Kanagawa 224-0043 JAPAN Phone: +81-45-470-9341 Email: kayoko.s@ko-on.co.jp This guy was so great I never looked back. They make them to order now days 5 years ago. One of the best deals in Audio in my mind! Well worth the wait.! |
