I have an old Ampex consumer deck (1165) that I came by for $20 a while back. I was thinking about nabbing some meters from it, and decided to skim the schematics - it's got a handful of inductors in it, the only one I remember with a listed value at 18mH.

Anyone know what kind of quality these guys are? Useful for a passive eq? (Gotta get out my RH4.) Are the values standardly on the part, or is there a crossreference chart maintained? Is it safe to assume the consumer parts are of lesser quality than used in the pro decks?
