So now that we know that echo tolerance is not all there is, tuner manufacturers can concentrate more on the basic fundamentals of what makes a good tuner. Stuff we've known about for multiple decades. The good news is that these basic fundamentals are well understood, whereas the equalizer design was the more tricky part of the problem. So we are *FAR* from being where we were in 1999. The fix might not be free, but it sure is KNOWN.
