I recently got some pots fm a parts dealer. CTS and they read, on avg. 570K. Is this good or is it too much for something spec'd at 500K? I've always liked 'em a little above spec but this seems high to me. Any opinions?

Not high at all... they should sound great. The RS Superpots I have spec out around 570K and they are superior pots. :jim

Thanks for the offer. I've already installed them, I was just thinking that was a little high.
