Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns 🙋♂️
-
⚡ What is the difference between B10K and B10KX2?
-
A B10K is typically a single-channel (mono) slider, while a B10KX2 is a dual-gang (stereo) slider. The "X2" indicates it has two independent resistance tracks controlled by the same handle.
-
-
🔧 How do I measure the "Handle Type"?
-
The 8mm or 15C designation refers to the height and shape of the metal stem that sticks out of the fader body. Measure from the top of the metal housing to the tip of the stem to ensure your knob will fit.
-
-
💪 Can these be used in high-wattage circuits?
-
These are signal-level components designed for low-power applications (typically under 0.1W to 0.5W). They should be used to control signals in a pre-amp or as a control input, not to directly drive heavy loads like speakers.
