Product overview
The SCHOEPS AMS 22 is an elastic suspension with swivel for MS stereo, holding two standard microphones of the Colette modular system.
It takes two Colette microphones of 20 mm diameter, for example a cardioid MK 4 and a figure-eight MK 8, each on a CMC 6 amplifier, one above the other for the MS technique. The elastic suspension isolates the pair from stand-borne noise, and the swivel sets the angle.
The base of the AMS 22 has a 5/8"-27 NS internal thread, and a threaded adapter is supplied for 3/8" and 1/2" mounting. The finish is grey / matte grey, and the matching windscreen is the SCHOEPS WMS.
