I tried TC+US5 Pro the other day with my friend, and compare it to WA234. While the two amps have different presentations, I would say US5 Pro is super competent in driving TC. The overall level of satisfaction I gain is the same from these two amps.TC is only way!
I do want to also point out that Sus is significantly better off from WA234 compared to US5 Pro. Much richer and deeper sound.
So anyone tried change fuse or send back to change?

Maybe contact the company for a datasheet on the specific part number. Maybe they have MTBF or other info available. I'm sure people speccing these pots need to know.Thanks, but i need more solid answer.
I think this is the site https://www.alpsalpine.com/e/

Exactly why? Your answer is dependent on the rated cycles. You should also note Alps is the industry standard. I'd say 10 million cycles with lubricant care through its life.Thanks, but i need more solid answer.
I'm curious with model of alps is inside Niimbus.

For example. 20 hours of usage per 4 days. How long you think it will last?Exactly why? Your answer is dependent on the rated cycles. You should also note Alps is the industry standard. I'd say 10 million cycles with lubricant care through its life.

You complicate things.For example. 20 hours of usage per 4 days. How long you think it will last?
Alps RK50 is rated at 15,000 cycles -- the largest most expensive
Khozmo stepped is rated at 50,000 cycles
DACT rated at 25,000 cycles
I'd expect 3,000 cycles for the Alps.
