Sourcing Pots

No... not that.

I'm working on an Auditronics 700 series for a friend, and have a need to replace several of the mic pre gain potentiometers.

The bourns 81 series fits the footprint, but I'm struggling mightily to find the resistance, taper and shafts size I need (even though the data sheet states those as "standard").

I've checked the normal online components warehouses. Is there somewhere else I can look that doesn't necessitate a minimum order quantity of 500?

State Electronics.

Holy sh**! Exactly what I was looking for. Mind blown. Thank you.

You know, I noticed several of the pots in the console marked "state" but never thought of it as the name of a manufacturer.

I'll be reaching out to them.

Be prepared to pay out the nose.

But then again, the last quote I solicited from them was for dual gang with steps...

Let us know what kind of pricing/quantity you end up with!
