Title: AT853 shotgun windscreens?
Post by: acidjack on November 04, 2015, 11:01:39 AM
Are these the right thing?

For mounts, are these also the right move for the guns?

No, the first ones you have listed first are for the bigger AT835 shotguns.

these are the ones that fit the smaller AT853 line-cardioids (mini shotguns)

When I bought them, they were $16.95 each, looks like they have gone up a few dollars in price.

And yes, those mounts will indeed work with the guns, but if you would like a smaller foot print, you could always purchase the smaller mic clips that ts.com user followinbob makes for the AT 853s.  I have a pair of them and they are quite well made.  I haven't run them with the guns yet, but I'm sure they would work just fine for them also.
