The Rycote Suspension Medium (XLR-3F) 62 is suitable for small diaphragm condensers up to 160mm in length and a diameter of 19-25mm with a 3-Pin XLR connector such as the Sennheiser MKH 50 or the Schoeps CMC Series. The package includes the XLR Holder Mk II, Boom Adapter for Modular Suspension System, Pistol Grip Handle, ConnBox 1 Microphone Cable Connection Box, two Single Lyre 82 (19/25), two Large (3-Module) Bar and a Hex Head Key.

• Patented Lyre suspension provides isolation against handling noise whilst safely gripping the microphone
• Modular bars designed for durability
• Comfortable pistol-grip handles allow handheld use, but also have a 3/8" boom adaptor in the base for quick transfer boom operation
• Connbox breaks the transmission path of the cable-borne noise, and reduces handling noise

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I'm interested in connecting a Sennheiser SK 100 G3 transmitter to a DJ's audio board. What is the difference between the Sennheiser CL 2, Sennheiser CM 1 and Sennheiser KA 600? Is it just the locking versus non-locking mini-stereo connector and length of each cable? Or are there important differences regarding signal quality?

A: The CM1 is designed for mics primarily with a DC voltage blocking capacitor to prevent damage to a microphone diaphragm. The CL2 is recommended for line level signal to the transmitter. The KA600 is designed specifically for the MKE 600 when connecting to a portable recorder or cameras high impedance input. Not designed for a wireless transmitter.

Q: 2. Seems like the only suspension product available for the Sony D100. The 2 existing reviews of the 041130 are quite negative, so is there another product (rubber/silicone?) that would fit the 3/8 thread and further dampen bumps and shocks? The intent would be to put a Sony D100 atop a camera or use a flexible arm connected to the same tripod the camera uses. Obviously, you don't want noise from camera movement on the tripod to enter the D100. Thanks.

A: Hi JDW26: thanks for your question. Unfortunately, this is the only solution we currently provide for the D100; we do not recommend making any additional modifications to the mount. Sorry we can't help any more in this case.

Q: 3. Will this cable work with the Sennheiser AVX body pack transmitter connecting to a standard hand mic? Can anyone from B&H answer this question?

A: This works well with the AVX transmitter. I’ve used it with both dynamic mics and self-powered condenser mics, such as the Rode M3, Sennheiser MKE-600, etc.

Q: 4. Can I put a Rde blimp on this suspension?

A: Hi Steve. This is a Rycote product, and cannot therefore be used with a Rde Blimp basket. The technology behind the Lyres originates with Rycote; however, we have licensed Rde to manufacture their own version, and so the Lyre that comes with and fits the VideoMic and similar/other products is designed and manufactured entirely by them. Rycote's official Lyres and suspensions are not incorporated: any versions you see on Rde products are made by them using their own materials and production methods under license, and fit using a different mechanism. Hope that helps!

Q: 5. Would this work to connect a Rodelink Wireless RX to a field recorder?

A: The Sennheiser CL 2 Transmitter Line Cable will not work with the Rodelink Wireless RX output into a field recorder. Please use the provided captive TRS cable with the ROVXLR adapter.

Q: 6. What is designed mic weight range for this? (The manufacturer's video indicates that different designs serve different applications. Makes sens. So what weight mic can THIS one handle? One reviewer noted his recorder flopped around too much.)

A: For recorders with a weight 300g (.67 lbs) or higher Rycote recommends the Portable Recorder Suspension HD. https://bhpho.to/2lzKviy This will support larger recorders such as the Zoom H6, Marantz PMD661, Roland R26 and other similarly sized recorders.

Q: 7. Is this the same cable that comes with the Sennheiser AVX Digital Wireless Microphone System - ME2 Lavalier Set?

A: No, its not.

Q: 8. What would be options for windshields that would fit with this and a Sennheiser mkh416? Thanks!

A: The proper windshield to fit a Sennheiser MKH-416 and the Rycote Medium Suspension 68 Duo is a Rycote Windshield #4; B&H# RYWS4. For further wind diffusion, feel free to add the Rycote Windjammer #4; B&H# RYWJ4. Also, these components are available as a kit (B&H# RYWSK4), providing users with some cost savings.

Q: 9. Will this cable connect with the zoom ft-bt? Are there shorter alternatives?

A: This will work. Shorter options would be: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1242233-REG/remote_audio_casensk100g3xl_3_pin_xlr_female_to.html/specs https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1296501-REG/cable_techniques_ct_sg3in_18_xlr_3_female_to_3_5mm.html https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1296491-REG/cable_techniques_ct_sg3lpin_18_24_3_5mm_trs_to.html
