Did the job, just about

Anonymous 13.10.2016

I had a cheap mic (AT2020 I think?), and I bought this because the 'official' shockmount was almost the same price as the mic.

It fit, and it worked reasonably well - but it was insanely tight, and incredibly difficult to open. When I first bought it, it was almost a two-man job to get a mic in it (though it did ease up a bit).

There was a small piece of felt inside, but at the opening of the ring, there's two metal tubes (which hold the spring levers you pull to open it up) which scratched the hell out of the mic. Not ideal.

On a slightly smaller mic, maybe it wouldn't have been an issue, but I measured the mic and bought the one that should have fit it.

Had these for 2 years now and used with AT2020. It's cheap. And it feels like it. The padding in the middle wears off over time, the threads are barely holding on to the small hooks, the screws for adjusting angle has to be super tightened to hold at all. And the clamps that has to be pressed to open the mic slot is just terribly designed (mine has somehow managed to turn the whole mechanism to the side just by laying in my mic case). It still works, but just barely. Decided to finally get the legit Audio Technica ones instead.

Good quality but doesn't quite fit my mic

I bought this shock mount for my AT2020, considering that one of the reviews states that it fits properly. Nonetheless, the mic is hard to fit in the shock mount, and when you do so:
- it feels like you're stressing a lot the metal of the shock mount and the mic (though the mic looks and feels way sturdier)
- the mic is not centered in the shock mount, probably due to the stress applied to the holder.
Don't get me wrong, the quality of the shock mount is very good, but don't buy it for an AT2020 at least.
Thomann was very kind to accept the shock mount for return, but unfortunately sending it back is going to cost it more than the shock mount itself, so I'll just have to keep it.

Ok to use in a homestudio, but i do not think that it will last to long due to the material it's made of. Too many times of unpacking etc will tear it to much, great holder though that doe's the job, but next time i will put in some more money to buy a more solid one.
