AKG 2610Z00350 Original Complete Capsule for AKG D7 (Varimotion Supercardioid Dynamics)
The AKG 2610Z00350 is the original complete capsule (Capsule compl.) used in the AKG D7 reference vocal microphone. It is the 1:1 OEM replacement indicated by AKG in position 3 of the D7/D7 S/D7 LTD exploded view, and is the same capsule that equips the D7 WL1 wireless head unit . Replacing the capsule ensures the D7’s sonic character is restored — supercardioid response , Varimotion double-thickness diaphragm and humbucking coil — while maintaining the model’s unique feedback rejection and handling noise control.
This capsule comes pre-mounted on its holder and is ready to be installed in the microphone body or WL1 headshell. As this is a transducer element, AKG recommends that it be serviced by qualified technical personnel, observing proper litz wire routing and proper mechanical seating to preserve acoustic and electrical integrity.
