SSM 6 : Excellent value mic suspension on a budget.

12 years ago

Bought these for a couple of Rode NT5s and didn't really expect too much at such a low price, but they exceeded my expectations. Build quality is surprisingly good at this price point and they provide just as much isolation as MUCH more expensive branded shock mounts I own for other mics. Brilliantly they're designed (or maybe its lucky coincidence?) to just fit together in an X/Y mounting if you use a stereo bar and a thread spacer on one mount. I also managed to get them neatly set up correctly for ORTF with the same mics. It looks like the dude who designed these actually tested them out at prototype stage to check their usability - something that doesn't always seem the case with cheaper products!

Can't recommend them strongly enough - superb product for the price.
