anybody know a good shockmount for the oktava mk319. i have heard that the oktava shockmount is a joke and since my 319 didn't come with one, i am in the market.
thanks
GC sells some standard Chinese shock mounts, the type Rode uses. They're about $20. The best fit is one size smaller than the C-1/C-3 shock mount.-Richie
the oktava shockmount is a little bit funny. you cant abuse it. but it works. i wouldnt call it a joke. i would call it.. worth the price. (i waited till they had some at MF clearance for $7)
these are really cheap home made sort of jobbies, but they are pretty damn sturdy. the 319 fits particularly well in this mount, the bands sort of fit into the recessed section and hold it very tightly.
oh and i forgot to mention- the guy who builds them is a (one of many) drummer for pavement. he played on slanted and enchanted. one of the greatest albums of all time. you owe him!
