Vanguard Audio Labs Large Shockmount
Let’s face it – it was high time to rethink the standard “spider-style” shock mount of yore and Vanguard felt they could build a better version and really give you the best possible isolation mount for your microphones. We gave an open front to the VLSM, which allows you to position your microphone as close to the source as possible while preventing early reflections from the front 120-degrees.

Product Description
Let’s face it – it was high time to rethink the standard “spider-style” shockmount of yore. We gave an open front to the Vanguard VLSM, which allows you to position your microphone as close to the source as possible while preventing early reflections from the front 120-degrees.
The Vanguard VLSM was also designed to get rid of the aggravating experiences with the flimsy elastic bands that come standard with most shock mounts. They get stretched out and saggy, and sometimes snap without warning – not something you want to happen when your mic is in there! Instead, we install aerospace grade rubberised suspension rings that are extremely sturdy and won’t break, sag, crack, or stretch over time. We picked a precise durometer for the suspension rings that will firmly support even the heaviest of microphones, while still maintaining superb decoupling properties to prevent unwanted rumble and vibration for superlative clarity in your recordings.
The Vanguard VLSM comes as a standard accessory for the Vanguard V13 Tube Condenser and V44S Stereo Condenser microphones. However, it utilizes a standard M22x1 ISO Metric threading. The VLSM should be compatible for up to 68mm (2.68″) diameter microphones with M22 threading at their base.
