The
(SMD) surface mounted resistors used on the standard Goldpoint Mini-Vs
are 0.1% Nichrome "thin film" with a thermal noise specification (TCR)
of 25 or 50 PPM and provide much better precision and better sonic qualities
than other brands (such as "Brand D") or even the typical Mini-V Custom
(with Vishay/Dale resistors installed). Excellent value for you: we
charge less for them.
Stereo
unit with 1% Vishay-Dale
RN60
resistors installed.
Note:If you need
a custom value or custom taper you can purchase our blank Mini-V Custom
switches, obtain your own resistors, and install them. It's easy to do.
In some cases, we can help you figure out the resistor values you may need.
This can be the least expensive way to get a high quality stepped attenuator.
You are welcome to use our thru-hole resistor lists - click here> Common
Thru-Hole Resistor Lists.
However, if you can, we
recommend that you use our standard Mini-V stepped attenuators because:
-----1)
They are pre-built and use (sonically superior) 0.1% precision resistors.
-----2)
All the work is already done for you - no ordering parts or extra soldering,
etc.
-----3)
They are a great value.

Knobs
for
6mm Shafts Custom
Machined (solid) Aluminum Knobs
These knobs are for
6mm shafts (0.237"), as found on Goldpoint stepped attenuators and selector
switches.
They can be "opened up"
to fit 1/4" shafts (0.250") fairly easily by using a 1/4" drill bit.
