AKG H 500 Shock Mount for DAM Series Gooseneck Modules
The AKG H 500 shock mount isolates E and ES DAM Series gooseneck modules from structure-borne vibration, reducing noise by 12 dB. Its plastic shell and flexible rubber boot allow quick setup and breakdown; the mount fits a standard 50 mm mounting hole.Overview
The AKG H 500 shock mount is purpose-built for permanent installation of E and ES version gooseneck microphone modules from the Discreet Acoustics Modular (DAM) series. A durable plastic outer shell paired with a flexible inner rubber boot effectively decouples the microphone from its mounting surface, delivering 12 dB of structure-borne noise attenuation. The tool-free design supports quick installation and removal, making it well-suited to conference rooms and installed-sound environments where rapid system changeovers are routine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where should I install a shock mount to get the most benefit from the 12 dB noise reduction?
Mount the shock mount between the microphone and the vibration source, such as directly on a desk or podium; this isolates the microphone from footsteps, machinery rumble, and air-conditioning vibrations that travel through the structure.
Does the H500 shock mount fit all AKG gooseneck microphone models?
The H500 is designed for E and ES DAM Series gooseneck modules; confirm with Procure.ae that your specific microphone model (SKU) is compatible before purchasing, as other series may use different mounting holes.
How does a shock mount compare to using a soft foam pad under the microphone base?
A proper shock mount like the H500 with flexible rubber isolation provides 12 dB of attenuation and is engineered for broadcasting; foam pads offer minimal isolation and can degrade audio quality, so a shock mount is the professional choice.
Can I quickly remove and reposition the shock mount between events without damage?
Yes; the H500 has a plastic shell and quick-setup design allowing fast assembly and breakdown; the flexible rubber boot is durable for repeated use across multiple venues.
Will the shock mount add significant height or change microphone positioning?
The shock mount does add modest height and may require slight boom arm repositioning; for exact dimensions and height increase, contact Procure.ae to verify it fits your installation constraints.
Is the shock mount suitable for outdoor or humid event environments?
The plastic shell offers moderate weather resistance; for extended outdoor use or high-humidity venues like swimming pools or greenhouses, contact Procure.ae to discuss protective measures or alternative mounting solutions.
What are the lead time and delivery costs for shock mounts to a venue in Jeddah or Riyadh?
Lead times and shipping costs to GCC locations vary; contact Procure.ae with your location and delivery date to confirm availability and arrange timely shipment.
Can Procure.ae provide installation guidance or on-site setup for a shock mount installation?
Procure.ae can provide setup guidance via phone or email; for on-site installation assistance at your venue, discuss your requirements with the team to explore available support options.
What mounting hole size does the H500 require, and is an adapter included for other sizes?
The H500 fits a standard 50 mm mounting hole; no adapter is mentioned in the product description; contact Procure.ae to confirm the exact hole diameter and discuss solutions if your installation requires a different size.
Are replacement rubber boots or internal springs available if the mount wears out?
AKG may offer replacement components; contact Procure.ae to inquire about spare parts such as replacement rubber isolation boots or springs for long-term maintenance.
Is the H500 shock mount covered under AKG's standard warranty?
Manufacturer warranty applies to AKG mounting solutions; contact Procure.ae for the full warranty coverage, term, and any regional service arrangements in the UAE or GCC.
