Product Overview

The Neumann EA 89 A (Model: 007195) is a high-end "spider-style" elastic shock mount designed specifically for Neumann’s larger, premium microphones, most notably the U 89 i and the TLM 170 R. Finished in a classic Nickel (Satin), this mount is an essential investment for any high-fidelity recording environment. It provides a specialized suspension system that decouples the microphone from its stand, ensuring that the precision of the Neumann capsule is protected from low-frequency vibrations and mechanical noise.

Product Description

• Elite Mechanical Isolation: High-sensitivity microphones like the U 89 i are designed to capture the widest dynamic range possible. However, this sensitivity makes them prone to picking up "thumps" from footsteps, floor rumble, or nearby equipment. The EA 89 A uses a heavy-duty elastic suspension system to "float" the microphone, creating an effective acoustic barrier against structure-borne noise.

• Integrated Precision Swivel: To facilitate surgical microphone placement, the EA 89 A features a robust swivel mount. This allows the user to tilt and rotate the microphone with precision to find the perfect axis for orchestral recording, vocalists, or acoustic instruments. A large, ergonomic locking screw ensures the microphone remains stable and secure once positioned.

• Secure Threaded Attachment: Unlike universal clips that rely on friction, the EA 89 A features a dedicated threaded base. The microphone is set into the inner cage and screwed directly onto the mount. This provides a rock-solid, fail-safe connection, allowing the microphone to be safely used in any orientation, including hanging upside down for traditional studio setups.

• Classic Nickel Aesthetic: The EA 89 A is precision-machined and finished in a beautiful satin nickel to perfectly match the high-end build quality of the U 89 i and TLM 170 series. The inner ring is carefully lined to protect the microphone's premium finish from scratches during installation.

• Universal Stand Compatibility: Designed for global studio standards, the mount features a 5/8"-27 female thread. It also includes a high-quality thread adapter for 1/2" and 3/8" stands, making it compatible with almost any professional microphone stand or boom arm in existence.
