The KSSM Microphone Shock Mount is the shorter alternative to the KSM. Every bit as much of a workhorse for ENG crews as the larger KSM, the tough design, strong grip on the microphone and superb vibration dampening are the qualities most loved about the KSSM. With a machined aluminum frame, the microphone is actually held firmly in place by two polymer mounts spaced 1 3/8" (3.5 cm) apart. The mounts stretch to accommodate most shotgun mics.
