I have some center detent linear pots for an EQ installed but behaving strange. According to spec they should be linear and reaching min or max resistance at 5% and 95%, fairly typical. But mine are more like 20% and 80%, essentially approaching close to max cut and boost at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock of the pot position. The response is fairly symmetrical.
Obviously this is not good. The question is whether it is poor performance due to process variation, or some strange taper that got mislabeled?
