Topic: sizes of bluelines caps

[Thomas]

Looking at the blueline datasheet, it seems that the omnis and hypers are slightly longer than the cards, can anyone who owns cards and either of the other two confirm this?  I always assumed that all of the caps, except the guns and the fig8, were the same size. 

[grider]

I owned both and I recall that they were identical, I might be wrong, but if they look as similar as I remember them the cards and hypers are either the same sized caps or very very close in size

the above must be a typo, since they're the same when you look at the third page of this document: http://www.akg.com/mediadatabase/psfile/datei/50/ULS_Series4055c282bda80.pdf
even the above specs and the .pdf don't agree.  the two length's must be with and without threads being measured.

the blueline caps would be ck9x, not ck6x

[F.O.Bean]

when i first got into my 480's in 99, i couldve sworn they were the bluelines too for some odd reason

but yeah, the ck9x are def bluelines

::total forhead slap::  yikes.  here's the spec sheet on the 9x:

This is weird, I thought I posted in this thread last week when it was originally discussed. You can see in the spec sheet that AKG says they're the same size, but if you look at the photo on the 1st or 2nd page when all the caps are lined up you can tell that the 93's are longer than the 91s.

What is the part# for the cable extension(active cable) to go from the body to the capsule?  I can't seem to find anything on the urls provided, etc.

Thanks Thomas!  We'll get a bar for the bluelines design soon!
