Good morning all,
I am starting a new thread on this question hoping to get more specific info, hopefully from some of the McIntosh tech experts out there.
3/4 of the carbon trace has peeled up on the right channel of my balance pot. The part is not available from Mc parts or any of the other common sources. My only option is to bypass until I can find a donor replacement. I don't completely understand this pot's configuration or why it is wired the way they wired it. I would like to know if anyone has done this or knows how to do this and may be able to provide some detailed instructions on how I can do this. for now I have Jumpered the bad side with some resistors to get the values close to the original side and it kind of works but not properly. I would just like to completely de-solder the pot on both sides and sub in proper resistors so both channels are balanced.
Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
