You can't beat a Rycote USM. http://mymic.rycote.com/devices/c-426-b/They're not cheap but they're just about indestructible - no more trying to replace failed elastics on floppy mounts - and give better isolation that any other mount I've tried, including the original AKG mount.

So in addition to the one posted above is this model- the "Lite" version: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/675997-REG/Rycote_044903_InVision_Universal_Lite_Microphone.htmlAnyone tell what the difference is? Same price $79.Either way, apparently one of these two is the one to buy for the 426.
