Title: schoeps a20 "knock off" shock mount?
Post by: fsulloway on December 05, 2006, 11:10:41 AM

Does anyone know who makes this shock mount that looks like the A20? I saw a thread on here quite some time ago but can't seem to find it now. Any help is greatly appreciated.

joe meek...but it is bigger in diameter both in size of the shock and the size mic it holds.  It fit my MG200s perfectly while the A20s was really tight on them...I would guess 1mm of difference in the holder..shock is maybe 1.5 times the size of the A20s

Thanks Nick. After some more looking I think the NAdy is the one I'm looking for. +T

The NADY is too big for the MG's btw. Not sure if many of the mics we use are well suited to those mounts. I had to pad them to use with the MG's and they work well, but not the greatest.
