Great for the Rode series

I bought one of these for my NTK mic; it is better than any other specialized shock mount I have used, including Telefunken and AKG Perception. The elastic tends to stay in place and the mic stand connection is very sturdy.
My only complaints are that the thing is a bit bulky, and the locking bar can get in a position where it is pushed against the mic stand clamp, which makes it hard to adjust.
Other than that, it is a good, sturdy product.

Plastic arm attachment, but...

Ok, I've had a Rode K2 for about 5 years now, and notwithstanding I've dropped the shockmount a time or two, the plastic arm broke and I'm about to have to get a new one. Not a problem, but I would think the plastic arm connecting the web mechanism and the screw receiver would be a little thicker. Overall, it's a much better shock mount that the one I previously had issues with, the Shure KSM 27 mount with the very cheap rubber strings which broke after only 2 years. You would think Shure would have utilized an actual elastic string instead of rubber string on their KSM 27 mounts.

Our Customers Say...

“My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.”
