    Hi everyone!

    In the process of replacing the capacitors of my WM-DD10 unit, I realized that the potentiometer had somehow snapped (due to heating while removing old caps?) and is now dead.

    I've found a thread on Tapeheads mentioning a similar problem with some replacement parts suggestion which I bought - unfortunately they are much smaller that the original potentiometer, don't have the same layout for soldering connections, and lack the screw to tweak the potentiometer from the other side of the PCB to easily adjust speed without having to tilt it completely...

    Would anyone know where to source an original/genuine replacement part for the RV601 part of WM-DD1/DD10 ?

    RV601, part number 1-237-005-21, RES, ADJ, METAL GLAZE 22K (SPEED ADJ)

    Thanks!
