Without responding to anyone directly, but reading through the comments...
* the bass actually has more slam and is more articulate/authentic sounding sans diver weight
* the resultant sound can be likened to previously the microphone/s were wrapped in a towel which muffled the entire 3D soundscape
* From day 1 owning the EVS 1200 I said the chassis is unnecessarily large, (and the lid has no vents)
* The entire chassis is made from the same material, so why would the lid be the big offender
* I am going to get a central air conditioning filter which SHOULD keep dust and mites out while letting hot air escape
* several months ago a friend brought over his laptop which he uses to make live recordings, so it’s not just any old laptop. First we listened through my CD player. When he hit play on his laptop my jaw dropped. After a few notes, I looked at him with jaw dropped.The expression my face said it all, "one giant step" for music playback. BUT, I have 1000+ CDs and am not inclined to transition from them. BUT removing THIS lid brought me a lot closer to the laptop experience
Should go without saying, but YMMV
