Title: dbx2150 instead of THAT2180
Post by: Claudio on January 13, 2021, 07:14:08 PM

Hello Jean-Pierre and all,

Can we replace the THAT2180’s in the CP4500 with original dbx2150 VCAs? Can they simply be swapped? Or do we need any modifications in the circuit first?

Thanks,
Claudio

To answer my own question (for anyone wondering the same), JPK replied to me that the dbx2150 aren’t really compatible with the THAT2180. It would require quite a lot of modification to use the dbx VCAs in the CP4500.
