Essentially this is a good sturdy shockmount suitable for the NT1, the NT1-A, and the NT2 available at a not over the top price.

I use this with my Rode NT1-A which is a very sensitive microphone and it does a great job of getting rid of those unwanted bumps and wobbles which can so easily mangle your recording. I use this mostly for recording in a studio context where it performs excellently with even low frequency sounds. The performance of this item can be best charecterised by saying that once I have it set up i don't think of it again, and for a shockmount this is exactly what i want.

The construction is sturdy and the grip on the mic is really tight so there are no worries abour it my mic 'escaping' mid session. The rubber elastics are basicly fine and i've had no problems with them, there was also a spare set bundled with mine which is always useful. The screw attachment works fine on my mic-stand and i've had no problems with the angle adjuster.

This shockmount is not the cheapest available at nearly £60 but it complements the the NT1, the NT1-A, and the NT2 well. To summarise this is a good and sturdy piece of kit which can be relied on to avoid vibrations creeping into your recordings.
