The S-series is a wholly new design - new suspension concept, new
materials, new windshield construction - and retains all the renowned
Rycote features of flexibility, balance and professional performance.
It is lightweight with a minimum of parts, tough enough to withstand
the rigours of ENG and simple to use straight out of the box - with the
XLR cable supplied.
Includes cable fitted with Neutrik NC3 (XLR-style) connectors.
S-series Suspension
One-piece web suspension elements - no rubbers or elastics
Patented design gives ideal isolation for all axial microphones
Unaffected by temperature and all-but unbreakable
Suitable for microphones 19mm (¾”) to 25mm (1”) in shaft diameter
Snap-in webs with six positions for perfect balance and fit
Matched, high-flexibility microphone cable with twin clamps
Pinch-release fittings for webs and cable clamps for quick and easy repositioning

Cable/Connectors Specification
Balanced microphone twin with ultra-fine stranded copper cores (18 x 0.1mm) and a helical screen
3mm soft PVC jacket for high flexibility even at low temperatures
3-pin Neutrik NC3 (XLR-style) connectors with gold-finished pins
For
microphones with 5-pin XLR outputs the S-series cable will not fit. At
this time we do not provide a 5-pin XLR cable option.
Structure
Steel spine for core strength and rigidity
Central chassis ring secures windshield pods and allows fast access to the microphone
Chassis ring can be demounted when only a suspension is required
All S-series systems will be supplied with our NEW pistol grip handle. For more info on the new handle please click here
S-series windshield (windscreen)
The windshield (windscreen) uses pairs of “Pods” which twist-lock to the chassis ring
All pods are 100mm (4”) diameter but come in three different lengths (see sizes below)
Four kit sizes combine the Pods to house microphones from <200mm (8”) to a maximum of 410mm (16”)
The acoustic fur covering (30mm staple) is integral and can give >30dB windnoise suppression (100-500Hz)
