Title: Shcokmounts
Post by: charles on November 06, 2004, 12:47:05 PM

About to buy first set of shockmounts. How important is having a really good pair. I've noticed a drastic difference in prices on these mounts and wanted to find out how important this accesory is.

any shock will work, some are just more rugged than others.

The generic, type will work just fine.  As long as it keeps the mic isolated from bumpage.  There is some diy efforts around here.  Also the generics wil fit all SD mics.
