JZ Microphones Vintage Shock Mount — Rycote-Built Isolation for the Vintage Series

The JZ Microphones Vintage Shock Mount is the dedicated suspension cradle for the Vintage Series of large-diaphragm condenser microphones, including the V67, V67-MKII, V47 and V12. Engineered and manufactured by Rycote, the recognised industry leader in professional microphone suspension, this mount decouples the capsule from floor vibrations, desk thumps and stand-borne rumble that would otherwise colour a recording. The VSM is the right choice for studio engineers and recording musicians who need clean, vibration-free vocal and instrument captures with their JZ Vintage Series microphones.

What Sets the VSM Apart

Unlike generic clip-style shock mounts, the VSM uses Rycote's proven elastic suspension architecture, the same technology trusted in broadcast and film production worldwide. The wide cradle accepts microphones with body diameters from 33 mm to 75 mm, so it doubles as a universal isolation solution for many large-diaphragm condensers beyond the JZ Vintage line.

Microphone Compatibility — Universal Fit

Compatibility is the most important practical consideration when choosing a shock mount, because a poorly fitting cradle will not isolate the microphone properly and can introduce its own rattle. The VSM is designed to hold the Vintage Series securely while remaining flexible enough for other common condensers.

• Compatible Microphones: V67, V67-MKII, V47, V12 — full coverage of the JZ Vintage Series
• Microphone Diameter Range: 33–75 mm — accommodates most large-diaphragm condensers on the market
• Manufacturer: Rycote — built by the leading specialist in professional mic suspension

Physical Dimensions — Studio-Friendly Footprint

The compact dimensions keep the mount stable on standard mic stands and short booms without crowding the workspace, while still leaving enough internal clearance to cradle a full-sized large-diaphragm condenser.

• Length: 19 cm
• Height: 14 cm
• Width: 8 cm

Vibration Isolation — Cleaner Recordings

The whole purpose of a shock mount is to keep mechanical noise out of the signal chain. The VSM's elastic suspension absorbs vibrations before they reach the capsule, which is critical when the microphone is mounted on a boom arm, a desktop stand or any surface that transmits footsteps or HVAC rumble.

• Suspension Type: elastic cradle — Rycote's proven vibration-isolating design
• Positioning: easy to position — quick angle adjustment without loosening the mic
• Effectiveness: kills all vibrations effectively — eliminates stand-borne rumble and handling noise
