Searching for high quality potentiometer

[thekid777]

Hi,
could you advise me high quality potentiometers to be used as a replacement for stereo fader. (L/R matched)
I'm looking for a 2k pot.
Many thanks and best regards!

If you want it really well matched you are possibly better off looking at a dual pole rotary switch with matched fixed resistors.  Also  2k might be difficult to find in a high quality dual pot.

Gold usually recommends ...TKD CP-2500 series..I would like to try them one day....not sure of values though.....

Here's a thread about some as relates to monitor control....

More detail is required. Are you looking for a linear fader slide pot or a rotary? What are the mounting parameters? Panel, PCB, through hole, solder lug, ...?

TKD straight line faders and pots are top quality - some of the nicest stuff I have ever seen or used.

I have used the 5kΩ  faders in my last few mixer projects and they have excellent feel, and are sonically and electronically top notch.

there is a dealer in Florida who will sell small quantities - I believe the contact is on the TKD site, if not you can contact me directly.

Alps RK27 is equally high quality and the stereo pots track - far and away - better than anything else I have ever tried.

2kΩ is going to be tuff as its a custom value...

For a custom part you can try PEC - they make Rv6 and Rv4 type pots that are Allen Bradley type pots.

also potentiometers.com could be a good resource.
