I know the source a few years ago was Jackson and Assoc. I believe he sold his inventory to another vendor. I've had some results with BAE but I need an additional source for some random cosmetic pieces, switches, and lamps.
Any one have any ideas where I can locate this?

Those pots were made by Preh, a Swiss co. out of biz for a dozen years or so. They are very high quality carbon pots and rarly ever wear out. They were used in Amek Angela's and Soundcraft TS-24's. Audio Maintanence in UK has copies made by Radiohm, not the same quality but they fit. Trident 80's tended to hard wire them instead of pc mount so you can call Soundcraft and wire those in, you may need to use a Soundcraft knob, though.

Jim, the pots I saw on eBay were the Omegs. They're OK. You can mount them to the board, but I choose not to when I replace the board mounted ones. It's less stuff to take apart, and much easier to deal with.

That's where I used toget a lot of my stuff from. Guy is really nice.

I've bought a fair amount of stuff from Bill @ tryaudio, and have had nothing but good experiences. At one point he sent me incorrect monitor faders, and rather than go through the hassle of sending them back, he let me just keep them and sent a new batch. It's been a while since I ordered from him, but he's been a good resource for my board (TSM). Good luck!
