Custom RCA Bass Knob

[Justin_1990]

So I've been dabbling with my 3d printer and I want to custom print an online rca bass knob. My question is can anyone recommend good RCA female ends of the solder variety, and what size and style of potentiometer to use. So far on the RCA ends all I can find is generic cheap ones from China or gold plated semi generic ones on Amazon. Potentiometers I can find about a thousand different ones lol. Any help would be appreciated.

Would something like this work?

That's essentially what I'm needing but I want just the connectors. I have the wires for them looking for just the end connectors.

Digikey, or just scrap some Monoprice cables for their terminals. Can't go wrong with 99% of Monoprice.

have any pictures of your model? Just picked up my printer last year and its always nice to see what others are doing.

I've got about 6 different models going atm. I'll post some pics when its decided on or done. I'm still trying to figure out what potentiometer to use. I know I need a dual gang linear taper but having a hard time find info on the resistance to use. I've seen lc1s using 20k but I've seen others using 50k.

My LC1 is 50k.  50K gives full attenuation, I wouldnt do less than that.

You can find a ton of pots on Parts Express.

Hmmm weird. I just took mine apart and my lc-1 is def a b20k ? guess they just use what they got haha. I've got the pots covered my main concern is now the rca ends. Thanks for the info though man its helpful!
