Audio-Technica AT8410a Shockmount

Audio-Technica shockmounts provide excellent mechanical isolation while offering unusual versatility and ease of use. Equally adapted to cylindrical and tapered microphones, they attenuate noise, shock and vibration transmitted through microphone stands, booms and fixed microphone mounts. The AT8410a permits easy microphone insertion and removal without detaching the mic cable; its spring-loaded clamp holds even heavy-tapered microphones securely. The AT8415's lightweight and low profile make it an excellent choice for "fishpole" booms and for video use. The AT8410a mounts directly to any stand with standard 5/8"-27 threads, and includes a constant-tension clutch and 180-degree swivel for easy, positive microphone adjustment. Isolation is accomplished with elastic shock cord. Microphones mechanically coupled to a stage or other resonant surface. And in live entertainment, shockmounts minimize noise from the movement of instruments as well as the pickup of high-level energy transmitted from nearby speakers.
