Hi!
Lately i'm having some problems finding good quality, cheap (also big enough to look good on 2-3U chasis) toggle switches for phase reverse, pad, filter, etc.
I'm not sure if standard 3A 250V toggle switches are ok for this. I can get switches rated at 28V/200mA, but they are too small to look good on big chasis. At the moment i'm looking at this model which is big enough and very cheap:

Can someone please tell me if 3A 250V is too much for audio signals and why? I would also like to know what materials are normally used for contacts in toggle switches.
Btw, i checked Cayacosta's site and he suggests 6A 125V switches for bypass and similar, so i guess i will be ok with 3A 250V switches.
