There was a discussion over at Prodigy Pro about suitable capsules for a G7. Peluso CK12 and BLUE Cactus are the prime candidates. To work with the circuit it should certainly be a dual-diaphram and I believe also edge-terminated.

The popular opinion at Prodigy Pro seems to be that the Peluso and BLUE simply give different flavours - one is not necessarily "better" sounding than the other. Given the huge price difference I'd be first tempted to try the Peluso.

There was also a fellow who used a new AKG capsule from a 414 B-ULS with good results.
