Volume Pot Upgraqde

A stepped attenuator would be a nice choice. If it won't fit, look at a TKD pot.

I've got a 50k Ohm stereo Noble(AP25), that I'm not using. Can a 1 1/8" H X 1 1/8" W X 1 1/4" D pot fit your application? FREE, to a good home.

So, I think I have a solution.

I am going to fabricate a sub chassis that will accommodate a stepped attenuater.

The "sub frame" will also allow me to add a selector switch and more inputs as well since the baby only has a single stereo pair input.

I am also upgrading the coupling capacitors to Mundorf Silver/Gold Oil caps.

I will post up some pics when it is finished (can we even do that here? I'm new)

Should you use 'break before make' switches in a selector application?
How about a nice bank of relays and 'soft touch' momentary contact switches?

Good point! I will work on putting that together...
