Oh what. $180 bucks for a pot?
I am really in the wrong hobby for a high school student...diy my dad supports me with, however I doubt that includes a $200 aud pot.
 
Some of my friends on the other hand, are into $1500 cameras plus $200 lenses...
I could build and balance a B22 and DT880 for that money.

Well, considering a pair of rhodium connectors (merely cosmetic) cost more than $200, $180 for a pot is a 'bargain' for me.


I can't believe anybody infer that having rhodium connectors is even close to the importance of a good pot...... :wink:

I actually paid $299 for the pot... but who's keeping track?

All I can say is it better sound like pure gold/rhodium/pick metal of your choice when I get it!

I kept remembering someone telling that rhodium connectors make the soundstage taller. Not sure if a good pot could do that. :)


Hanging a person from the neck makes them taller too. Doesn't mean we should all run out and do it.

Well hopefully this pot will make the soundstage awesomer.
The awesomeness factor will be increasing by a googleplex.
 
Now I just have to find a nice, big fat knob for the front of the case... any ideas anyone?

A little while ago I spent some time looking for a large, reasonable priced knob.  I ended up getting this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290374815327&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_500wt_928
 
Most of the knobs I found that I liked more were a lot more expensive (ie DACT, or sites that had minimum orders).  I'm not sure how big you wanted, but this one is decent sized and hefty since it's solid (some other knobs aren't).

Not bad, but I bought a knob from these guys for use in my Millett MAX case, and it was really nice... I just wish there was a bigger version... http://www.partsconnexion.com/chassis_knobs.html

Hi !
 
I'm trying since days to contact Khozmo to buy an attenuator, and until now I doesn't really obtain answers.
 
Did you faced the same problem ?
 
Anyone of you bought one the past weeks and obtain it ?
 
Thanks for your feedback

Yeah, that's about it.  They Suck apparently.  You might want to read the thread from the start...

Goldpoint makes some nice knobs. Not too pricey. At least considering what you are spending for a pot.

They also make a stepped product. I have not heard any opinions on it yet.
