{"product_id":"vanguard-vssm-small-shockmount","title":"Vanguard VSSM Small Shock Mount","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eVanguard VSSM Small Shockmount\u003c\/strong\u003e is a heavy-duty, professional-grade shock mount designed to give your mics long-lasting, high-grade support.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eRE-IMAGINED DESIGN\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eWhile Vanguard's chief engineer was the first to popularize the “tube” style shock mount for pencil condensers, Vanguard felt they could build a better version and really give you the best possible isolation mount for your microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, the inner diameter was widened to 37.5 mm, which will safely support microphones with up to a 30 mm diameter. This means all of your pencil condensers, as well as several popular ribbon microphones and medium-diaphragm condensers, will be safely and comfortably supported by the VSSM.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eVanguard then added a 240º window to the VSSM body. This allows you to easily access a pad, rolloff, or pattern switch on the microphone without affecting placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThere are none of those flimsy elastic bands that come standard with most shock mounts. They get stretched out and saggy, and sometimes snap without warning – not something you want to happen when your mic is in there! Instead, the VSSM features aerospace-grade rubberized suspension rings that won’t break, sag, crack, or stretch over time. VSSM features a precise durometer for the suspension rings that will firmly support even the heaviest microphones, while still maintaining superb decoupling properties to prevent unwanted rumble and vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe bands can be crossed either horizontally\/vertically or diagonally to provide a more secure grip to differently-sized microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCONSTRUCTION\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eHeavy-duty zinc alloy is used for the VSSM body and knob. There’s no brazes or welds that can weaken over time. Instead, each component is precision-cast.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe pivot is made out of impact-resistant ABS thermoplastic polymer to provide superior friction. This will keep the microphone from slowly sliding out of position.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe threaded part of the knob, as well as the dual-threading (American 5\/8″-24tpi and European 3\/8″-16tpi) in the pivot, are machined from brass.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe VSSM is finished with a durable heat-cured powdercoat, colored matte black.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eWIDE COMPATIBILITY\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe VSSM comes as a standard accessory for the Vanguard V1 Multi-Capsule Pencil Condenser Kit. However, it is a superior shock mount for a wide variety of condenser, ribbon, shotgun, and dynamic microphones from several brands, with a diameter of up 30 mm.
