Glasshouse / NOS Audio Note 2-pole 23-way switch / Stereo Shunt Stepped Attenuator
Audio Note has moved to a new in-house-designed switch for its recently launched range of stepped attenuators. As a result, we could acquire the remaining stock of their old switches at a very reasonable cost.
With a shortage of high-quality, accurate mono-taper potentiometers, more people are turning to stepped attenuators to achieve neutral channel-matched volume controls. Usually, stepped attenuators are relatively expensive, so we are happy to announce that we can provide a stereo shunt attenuator kit for £47.38 + VAT + carriage.
This version offers 23 volume positions from mute to near total volume through our tried-and-tested 2dB step values of resistors. The front of the switch does possess a "non-turn" lug of 3.5mm in diameter x 5mm in length that protrudes through the front panel. This can be removed with cutters if not required.
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 52mm (oval shaped) x 35mm 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.
