AKG H-85 - shock mount for mics with shafts from 19 -26 mm Ø
The AKG H 85 Universal shockmount for all microphones with shaft diameters
from 19 to 26 mm (0.75 to 1 in.), e.g. C 414 B-XLS und C 414 B-XL II.
For the new C 414 B-XLS and C 414 B-XL II microphones, AKG
designed a new shock mount that differs from the familiar H 100 as
follows:
The outside ring has been reduced in diameter from 120 mm
(4.7 in.) to 100 mm (4 in.).
The color has been changed from black to dark gray.
The clamping range has been increased from 22 - 26 mm (0.87
- 1.02 in.) to 19 - 26 mm (0.7 - 1.02 in.) to accommodate microphones
with cylindrical or conical bodies or connectors including, e.g., the
AKG Blue Line and ULS Series.
The H 85 shock mount keeps a lower profile than the H 100
and therefore looks better on the microphone.
The H 85 also matches several other AKG studio microphones,
e.g., the C 2000 B, C 3000 B, and C 4000 B.
At present, the only microphones including an H 85 shock
mount as a standard accessory are the C 414 B-XLS and C 414 B-XL II.
