Versatile Shock Mount for Omnidirectional &

The SM1500 shock mount from DPA Microphones fits both omnidirectional and directional microphones. Its adjustable double-pole base accommodates compact and larger models. The design suppresses vibrations that reach the capsule through the stand. This ensures cleaner audio capture in studio or broadcast environments.

Rycote Lyre Suspension Limits

The mount is built on the Rycote Lyre suspension system. Rubber hardness must match microphone weight: lighter mics need softer rubber pieces. Users add the appropriate Lyre insert themselves. The system cannot compensate for mass outside its calibrated range.

Adjustable Double-Pole Construction

The robust double-pole frame allows poles to slide forward or back. Holders can be mounted facing up or down for flexible positioning. This single mechanical adjustment range determines whether a specific microphone fits securely. No tool is required for reconfiguration.

Questions about this item

Which version of the SM1500 shock mount should I choose for my microphone?

The SM1500 is a single model designed for both omnidirectional and directional microphones; its adjustable double-pole base and swappable Rycote Lyre rubbers let you fit compact or larger mics without needing a different version.

How does the Rycote Lyre suspension in the SM1500 affect recorded audio?

The Lyre system isolates the microphone from stand-borne vibrations, so handling noise and low-frequency rumble are suppressed, giving cleaner captures with pressure-gradient mics.

What thread standard does the SM1500 base use and what does that limit?

The adjustable stand base accepts standard microphone-stand threads, so the mount works with common boom arms and floor stands but is limited to those thread sizes.
