Title: what the hell is this, and where can I buy them?
Post by: Nick's Picks on January 20, 2006, 02:21:30 PM
not the mics...
but look at those shockmounts.  Looks just like an a20.  I've been looking for something like this, but am too cheap to drop $60 on the schempz.
theese look to be perfect!

Nick,

I have some and they're made by a company called Nady (model SSM-5)

I got a pair on ebay for about $20.  The screw/bolt at the elbow joint is junk.  I replaced it with a rubber washer and more solid screw and locking nut.

They look a lot like the ones that come with the SP c-4's too.

Yeah, those are the guys I got mine from.  I submitted my 'best offer' as $10.95/ea. for a quantity of 2 and they accepted it.

Like it said though, prepare for elbow joint junkage.  Just replace the nut/screw with .20cents worth of better ones and you're g2g.

Are these as good as, better, or worse than the C-4 shocks?
My problem with the C-4's are they are a bit too snug on my C-480's.
