Most bulletproof off the shelf wallplate 10k volume control

[Daniel Postilnik]

What is the most robustly constructed off-the-shelf 10k wallplate volume control available for purchase?

Hoping to find one with a physical stop at minimum and maximum. Knob size on the product doesn't matter, but I'm planning to install a larger knob if it is smaller, which I suspect will impart more force when it is being turned vigorously (and it will always be turned vigorously in my intended setting).

What's the intended application? Any chance you could use up/down buttons, or an encoder instead?
(things with hard stops don't generally take abuse well)

Group fitness class. The instructor needs to be able to know when they reach maximum in the middle of class without looking. Up/down buttons aren't fast enough and have the same lack of feedback.

Will the pot be directly connected to the line level audio path or controlling a voltage that is in turn controlling a DSP unit.

You can get some beefy 1 and 2 watt rated carbon pots, check Mouser.

Controlling a DSP unit.

Would this be appropriate for my use case based on my answer above?

Most robust pots ever made. Find a wall plate and a knob of your choice.

Hmmm, looks like allen bradley doesn't make a 10k ohm linear pot unfortunately.

Edit: Or rather they have one but it doesn't have the standard 1/4" shaft. Realizing my parameters are narrower than I thought.

Here's a link to a Mouser Electronics page with 10k linear big 2 watt pots.

Towards the bottom of the first page are some by ETI systems that look like the A&B pots.
