Mounting options for "active" style microphone capsules
« on: February 18, 2009, 12:38:23 PM »
I've been looking at old threads for some ideas on mounting so called "active" capsules. I thought I'd put pictures of all of them on one page.
Some are DIY. Some are made by the manufacturer.
Please feel free to add any I missed. (which is a lot)

Heh, friggin' awesome!!!

I just got my Senn 8040's today, and was thinking about how to mount them - the doohicky with the threaded bar, two spacers and the piece of gray PVC looks like just the ticket!!

Your timing is impeccable, sir <grin>

Mike
AKG 461's / 463's OR Senn MKH 8040's > MR1000 (Busman mod) or Shure FP24 (aka MixPre) > MR1 (open)
Coresounds Binaurals > CChurch 9100 > MR1 OR AKG CK1x/2x/3x > Deneke P20 > MR1 (low profile)
