#1 Tocos volume pots.

Post by pre65 »

I have a couple of Tocos pots in stock.

Not sure where I got them, but one was a "bargain" on Ebay.

Now, I was thinking of using one on my pre 3, but I'd forgotten what resistance they were, so I found a Tocos data sheet on the web.

Having checked the stamped number on the rear one of mine is a 100K log pot, and the other is a 50K linear pot.

So, if you want to check the details of your Tocos pot (especially Ebay purchases) use the chart on the last page of the above link.

Question. If using a linear pot in shunt mode does it still need a law faking resistor ?
