Wanted: Edison DD Tone Control Part.

Post by audiophile102 »

I have an Edison A250 diamond disk. I purchased the tone control parts on ebay that were missing from behind the grill. One small part was not included when I bought the missing parts. It's a small metal tube that goes over the end of the tone control wire which then is pushed into the soft ball. I don't care if it is an original factory part necessarily so if you have a source for a new or old one, please let me know. The image is from Brad Hurt's You Tube page.

Cable ferrule! That is crimped on there? Here is a link to the McMaster-Carr page with those; it looks similar.

No worries! I'm needing a mute ball myself for my A-200 in a couple years; it has the ferrule with it I think.

I do not remember if it's threaded inside or not--Been awhile--but even if this doesn't work it might still only set you back $2 or $3. And Brett Hurt's YouTube videos are genuinely a benefit to the hobby.
