I ordered a small 1W amp kit and it came with a 10K potentiometer which is too big and bulky, and I just want to connect the holes in the PCB for that potentiometer so that it is at full volume always (I want to adjust the volume on the mp3). By looking at the schematic, can anyone tell me the correct way to wire it so that it is at full volume always? I have found one way for full volume always, but when i turn off the mp3 and the amp is still on, it makes a lot of static noise. Thanks.
