All of my home based amps are using either 50K or 100K Alps Blue pots, only a couple of portables use 10K pots so I'll use the 50K value. That would make the corner frequency formula at f = 1/(2 * π * 50000 * 0.00000033) = 9.6Hz If there's nothing wrong with that calculation, I'm on the way to making a new AlienDac for myself |
