Glasshouse / Blore Edwards 4-pole 23-way switch / Balanced Stereo Shunt Stepped Attenuator

Click to Zoom

This stereo-shunt stepped attenuator features the Blore Edwards 4-pole 23-way switch, the OPZ-51261-4, with silver contacts. 

We have 23 volume positions from mute to near total volume through our tried-and-tested 2dB step values of resistors.

We offer the option to choose from 16 different resistor types for this kit.

Dimensions

Shaft: 6mm diameter x 13mm length

Bush: 10mm diameter x 12mm length

Body, including resistors fitted (internal part): 45mm x 53mm (oval shaped) x 47mm height  

The front of the switch does possess a "non-turn" metal lug of 3.5mm diameter x 5mm in length that protrudes through the front panel, so provision is needed. If not required, this can be removed with cutters. If not, a 3.5mm diameter hole 13.5mm from the centre hole of the shaft is required.
