it seems like they might blow off of the caps.  I've got some actives coming, and the only screens I have are the big shure's

they won't. just push them all the way down until they won't go any further, essentially covering the entire cap/collette

same w/ the 140's...the screens just eat the mic up so it basically is a set of screens with wires ;-)  not going to fall or blow off....you'll see.  enjoy.

They work extremely well w/ the kwon bars and the mbho's :) They dont budge a 1/4" in some pretty big gusts and stay on for 16 hrs at festivals :)

Cant beat the big-ass shures IMO :)

What model Shure windscreens are you guys referring too?  I need some beefy wind screens for my actives.

It's an a51 ws if I'm not mistaken

I just ran the A81WS on some Schoeps CMC64's this afternoon for a windy day on the water.  Now wind sound; good high end.  The A81WS is well-made and works.  If you even think that wind will be a problem, these pups are a good idea.

Cheers

I always prefered the Shures over the stock screen/dead rat combo. Can anyone comment further on this? Is the stock/dead rat combo overkill? I think the Shures are much less of a high end killer.
