So is there a true active cable solution in the works that I can run between my CK61/CK63 caps and C460B bodies?

The old JK Labs box sounded great, but it was sonically different than the caps with the AKG bodies, and I expect any similar setup that removes the 460/480 bodies will differ slightly in sound. If a true active cable is available one day, I will be all over it.

I'm just glad the idea of AKG actives has stayed alive all these years.

Brad....Naiant was not trying to make cable/circuit for the 460/480 AKG body...it is a Phantom Power Unit - Cable - Coupling/Circuit - AKG CK6X Capsule setup...and yes it will sound slightly different...check Chucks OP of sound files on the MOE show...

Sounds fucking Great to me...
