I've already done a Google image search.

I was just wondering if anyone here could come up with some detail shots of the insides of an AKG C12 that I haven't already found ?

I assume you've seen this one, Rob:

The only other recent pics I've seen were here:

Obviously I'd like to see the guts of a C24, but the pic that Roddy has posted shows me what I need to know. So if it's a hassle don't worry. Thanks.

how are the PELUSO CEK-12 capsules? They are trying to copy the C-12 right?

Am waiting for my rebate check to grab a apex460 and upgrade the tranny...and possibly the capsule.

I've got one. I'll open it and take some shots after the weekend when it's done with drum room duty.

Hi,

Long time no see. Just popping in to ask if anyone knows where I can get the ring which fits between the basket and the body on an original C12?

You can see the ring in this photo. It looks around 6mm thick, and covers the screwholes where the basket attaches:

Thanks.
