Post Subject: Shall I co?Posted by N-set on: 9/4/2012

So I ordered a Shallco switch from Nebraska:

According to some gurus at diyaudio.com endless Blowjob preamp thread,
it seems to be the best human invetion after sliced bread.
Let's see. If it's audible at the SUT secondary, it can always go to source selector
up the chain, giving a whopping possibility to choose from 11 sources.

What made me go for it rather than TKD is...i) price...ii) tkd is closed, but does not seem
to be sealed, so I wont be able to clean/lubricate it or adjust the brush tension
iii) recommendation: there seem to be much less feedback on TKD switches than their pots/attenuators,
contrary to shallco/seiden
