Alps, RH2702 50K pot.

[bob orbell]

Hi all, I have been looking for a cheap Alps 100k pot and came upon this on ebay, very cheap but it has 8 pins, two are for loudness connection, it arrived Friday and my intention was to pull it apart and fit the 100k parts into the new body of the RH2702, after taking this new pot apart it is very different, it has about 20 indents and instead of a carbon track
it has very neat miniature surface mount resistors, these measure far better than the carbon track, almost perfect, so I reassembled and fitted, it does sound very good and so cheap, not sure if this is a copy or original Alps, for a fiver try one, you may be impressed. Bob
