Avantone MONDO Kick Drum Mic w/Shockmount

The MONDO kick drum mic is the heart of the AVANTONE CDMK drum mic lineup. It offers a very aggressive frequency contour that sounds huge right out of the box, so most engineers will find little need for EQ. Plus a no-plastic design with die-cast zinc body with a steel and brass grill assembly, and features internal shock mounting on the capsule assembly to prevent the transmission of unwanted "rumble" from physical vibrations.

• The SSM shock mounts are rugged and allow for a superb decoupling of the mics from unwanted low-frequency transfer and rumble. This feature, coupled with the use of the PRO-KLAMPS, results in a much tighter, less muddy sound than other brands of drum mic kits. The O-rings are manufactured using a custom formula. The new world class Ethylene Propylene formula provides enormous resistance to breakage, resistance to surface nicks and remains supple and effective even against dry, hot temperatures. It has the best resistance to ozone and weathering, which makes it great for use around electronics devices, and maintains its physical properties even in a stretched condition. Each SSM is constructed of heavy-duty die-cast zinc, which is not only incredibly durable but also adds mass, which contributes to vibration dampening/decoupling.
