Hey all. I am in need of some help with a cab I have had for a number of years. My Crazy Taxi cab has what I assume are bad Volume Control potentiometers. Sound is now scratchy (especially when messing with the volume pots) and goes into a high the. Low range almost at random. It is generally playable but I am just wanting some clean sound out of it again. I know it is not the Naomi board. I have pulled that out and ran it in about cab and also put another working Naomi in the Crazy Taxi cab and got the same results. So my first assumption is to change the volume potentiometers. But I have no idea how many ohms those new ones should be. Any idea?

Have you also tried different RCA cables from NAOMI to amplifier?

Detoxit fixed my boom box…same scratchy issue w/ the volume knob. Try a little squeeze on your volume pot.

So after swapping it out with a B100K potentiometer the cab sounds great now. No amount of cleaning saved the old one.
