Hello,
I'm thinking about buying the Royer LDC tube mod kit, and had a couple questions. I've done a few PAIA kit projects before so I'm not totally inexperienced, but I'm still very fuzzy on how exactly mics work....
My first question is, can you pair any capsule w/ any mic head amp? Just wondering if I can replace the MXL or ADK capsule w/ something better? Would there be any issues here? Would I have to get 67-ish type of capsule?
Second question is sort of related. If I could use a different capsule, could I just forget the MXL or ADK altogether, buy a capsule and build a mic body myself? I'm sure the body of the mic effects the overall sound, but how?
Thought this could be fun, but I dont know how feasible it is. Just wondering if anyone had any insight.

Thanks for any thoughts
