Title: What T-Bar is this?
Post by: ethan on June 30, 2005, 02:33:57 PM: Hey what T-Bar is this? Anyone know what the thread sizes are on the ends? 5/8?

What is the diameter of the T-bar?

Thanks,

I'm not talking about the shockmount...what's stuck in there? The clips are screwed on to something.

Post by: Nick Graham on June 30, 2005, 03:24:58 PM: No thread, they're just the perfect size to fit the A20s. Stick 'em in end to end and they go in tightly...

Atlas makes a 5/8 male thread piece about 3/4" long that you can use to thread the two mounts together. I use one to hold the stock Oktava clips together so I can do the same thing.

those are my mics from WSP at RCMH I believe.

I use a bolt cut to length with 2 nuts as spacers to hold the mic clips togther,
without something holding the clips togther the weight of the microphones make the clips slide around inside the schoeps shock mount.

Post by: Simp-Dawg on July 03, 2005, 01:11:29 PM: you can do that with the stock clips that come with the mbho's for the active set up as well...but a kwonbar is so much nicer! ;)
