I'm just guessing, but...
A Tone Capsule replacing the current preamp would definitely be an improvement. The bass control operates at a higher knee frequency range: 70 Hz. (That is, if it's shelving. If it were peaking rather than shelving, now that would be really cool. That's one of Tech 21's secrets to making things sound beefy without sounding muddy. Eden did the same thing in their WTDI.) 70 is still low enough to remain in subwoofer region (so you're not overworking the PA's mid boxes with a higher bass-boost frequency like 100 and above), but it's not down in the driver-shredding mud, either, like it seems things are now. So, bullseye. High-mid control is 2800, which is a lot more reasonable than the crazy-high range the current MM treble control runs in. No more ice-pick zing.
But, like I said, just guessing...
I could be wrong, too. Honestly, I was just dreaming out loud.
Maybe there'll be a prize for whoever gets it right. A GC $25 gift card and a congratulatory pat on the back maybe? It would be totally worth it.
I’m confused. Is this an official Collaboration between EBMM and Darkglass?
