In my quest for designing the perfect headphones, I realized a few things.
When using audio taper pots, in order to have a natural volume change when turning the pots, one would have to wire them so then one is loudest when turning towards your head and the other away.
This is because the value changes more slowly from the wiper to the CW end vs. wiper to the CCW end.
If wired as most are with both controls louder when towards your head, for example, one control will cange too quickly.
Thoughts?
