do i need to make any changes in this circuit if i alter the WM61A using the linkwitz mod?

while i enjoy and learn from all the articles in tape op.(only publication i read cover to cover every article) i first subscribed after learning of the MXL 2001 "Royer Mic Mod". and the omni mics. since then ive completed the hamptone lcmp mic pre and was wondering where the DIY articles have gone....
