Volume imbalance


When I adjust my dual volume control I can almost never seem to get each channel to equal out.  I can adjust one side but then it's just a little bit louder than the other. I believe it's the nature of the tolerances of the stepped Alps pots. I've got room for the Khozmo controls. But I'm not sure if this the way to go. I'm looking for opinions/experiences or suggestions. Thanks for any help. Would an audio taper pot be ok?

The Single most important component in a preamplifier if not going with a stepped attenuator go with as high quality potentiometer as you can afford - the TKD IMO is superior to any Alps one - here is a 100K Audio taper one
