Vol. Control, TKD Or Dact For Counterpoint Pre ?

The DACT uses resistors which are better than conductive plastic.

I guess the next obvious question would be:
Is the DACT attenuator physically smaller than the stepped (not plastic) TKD ?
I did a Google search on the Goldpoint, it looks really nice, wonder how it compares to the DACT ?
Thanks, Rkeman & Rwwear.

Look at Dact.com. Their controls are small.

FWIW the CTC Blowtorch preamp uses slightly modified TKD pots. It is suggested to avoid use of Vishay resistors since image height variations are lost or at least diminished.

After some research it looks like RX8man and myself should be looking at the following types:

Step attenuators ladder type that have a high amp rating of 20 with metal film resistors.

Any other suggestions?

Brian,

I spoke to the guy from first sound and he mentioned that he uses Vishay resistors, obviously a specific model. Where did you get your info and what resistor should be used?

Thanks
