Title: Inexpensive (But Not Cheap) Movo Mic Mounts
Post by: fanofjam on March 10, 2026, 06:54:50 PM
I bought a pair of Movo SM6 mic mounts and have compared them next to my Rycote INV-7 mounts.  Without price being a factor, I think I like the Rycote's better because there's an extra degree of freedom that the Movo mounts don't have, but the Movo mounts are only $30 compared to $61 for the INV-7 (discounted from $93).  All-in-all, the Movo mounts are a better value and all you have to do is add one of the crab clamps with ball head ($15; link shown below) to make them functionally identical to the INV-7's.  I give them two thumbs up!

Can't find the distance between lyres.  Will the SRS mounts fit on these Movo's?
