[QUOTE="drew gandy, post: 66167, member: 880"] Re: Shure Lav clip I think you're right. Maybe it's the photos from Shure where I've seen it in the floppy configuration. The other thing that has thrown me is how the little loop in the wire clip fits so nicely into the slot in the windscreen. I use the Shure mics almost exclusively; not because it's my choice but because it's what all the AV companies have and I've tended to follow suit with my own gear. [And being in 'Shure country' might have something to do with it.] I tend to prefer the 185 capsule (cardioid) for general use as the 184 can be a little too tight on some speakers but both are acceptable as far as I'm concerned. As far as routing the wire through the clip, it's not bad. But I do wish there were a loop or guide for the wire to fasten all the way around to the back of the clip. 90%+ of the time I'm putting the mic on a tie or shirt where I want the wire to go around and behind the clothing.
