AKG 2400X00080 - Capsule for AKG K702

AKG 2400X00080 - Replacement DKK45 Capsule/Driver for AKG K702 (Unit)

The AKG 2400X00080 is the replacement DKK45 driver capsule for the AKG K702 Reference Headphones. It is an OEM replacement that returns the K702 to its factory performance in clarity, stereo imaging and frequency response when one of the original transducers has failed due to impact, moisture or wear. This capsule is supplied as a single ear element: replacing both sides requires two units.

The K702's own service documentation identifies the DKK45 capsule as the transducer used in this model, and authorized dealers list reference 2400X00080 as the earpiece for the K/Q 70x family. By maintaining the tolerances, nominal impedance, and sensitivity of the original design, replacing the capsule ensures the restoration of channel balance and the characteristic sound signature of the K702.
