First post on ASR hope I'm in the right place!
I'm deciding between the Monolith Monoprice THX AAA 887 and the Drop 789 and whilst I prefer the look of the 887 I've heard that the volume pot is godawful: digital, spins infinitely, doesn't adjust quickly so turning drastically up or down can take a while. So, to decide which I'll get I want to figure out if I can modify the volume pot on the 887. I'm a complete beginner to modifying electronics (have some meagre soldering experience) so in order to do this I need to figure out:
1) Where can I find the appropriate parts?
2) How do I do this?
3) If I can do this, can I do it in a way that won't look and feel janky?
I can't seem to find any schematics or pictures of the interior of the amp so I guess this will be a largely theoretical discussion...
Thanks for the help!
