It also helps to add $400 wood knobs to the otherwise crappy sounding $6000 volume control you bought.
I will back up wooden knobs for one reason and one reason only...
I am the king of static electricity buildup.
I get shocked all winter long getting out of cars after sitting on polyester seats... I wear a static strap to bed... and I once (no joke) reset a DDR (digital disk recorder) by leaning close to it with my groin while reaching for a time base corrector in an upper rack. A lightning bolt shot out of my winkie and struck the road rack the DDR was in (or is it the other way around, like lightning goes from earth to the cloud?) and up popped the NT 4.0 boot up screen.
I felt like one of Godzilla's nemises - lightning bolts shooting out of my wedding tackle, striking down all in my path!
