I will give it a good amount of thought....maybe I will go for it on mine.

  May I humbly suggest to all people on the Glenn amp waiting list to go for the Gold Point stepped attenuator ( if budget permits). One of the best (if not the best) attenuator I have had the pleasure of turning. So solid & smooth.

The lack of channel imbalance that I've read about is enough reason for me to opt for it when my number is up. If the knob-feel is excellent, that's icing on the cake! Thanks for the recommendation.

  Go for a volume knob with a larger diameter and slightly higher weight for optimum results.

Explain....please

  I believe the message is that you will not get as much tactile pleasure from a small knob....

??!!Size Matters?? Who knew??

Right.  I'm just suggesting from personal experience that larger size knobs with a bit more material weight feel better mechanically with the goldpoint.  With a smaller knob the steps are very pronounced and clicky.

Just dropping in to say hi, it's been a while. I have to admit I haven't listened to my 300B amp in a very long time, it's all been solid state lately (Violectric V281 and Beyerdynamic A2)
But that didn't stop me from buying these RK60s on ebay

You 300B uses these as rectifiers ? I thought Glenn's 300B's used PY500 / 42EC4 as rectifiers ?
