Title: AKG 391 shockmounts??
Post by: Aaron734 on May 15, 2004, 04:30:40 PM

Hey everyone,
Question…does anyone have a suggested shock mount for these mics, or maybe a preferred one? Also, let me know where they are sold.
thanks
Aaron

Aaron,

I use the AT8410a's with my AKG393s and they do a great job.  I would recommend buying from Micsupply.com

I also use the 8410's with my 393's, and I like them a lot. The Shure shock mounts look intriguing though.

Another vote for the 8410's. I got lucky and got a pair of them and a stereo bar on ebay for 70 bucks shipped. Keep an eye out there.

So there is two AT8410a's on ebay right now and it looks like they might go for a good price, but the sambras are also a great deal. I have another question: which of these mounts would work better with a shure vert bar (my next purchase)? Does it matter at all? Thanks for the input everyone.

A little expensive but if you like the low profile deal I'm pretty sure they would fit in those schoeps shock mounts.
