Frequently Asked Questions
What AKG microphones are these WM81 wire mesh caps compatible with?
The WM81 caps are designed for AKG miniature microphone models that accept the WM81 mesh cap size. Check your specific AKG microphone model's documentation to confirm compatibility before ordering.
Do these wire mesh caps affect the sound quality of the microphone?
No, they are engineered for acoustic transparency, meaning they protect the microphone element from physical damage and debris without noticeably altering the frequency response or sound pickup.

Purchasing a five-pack ensures you have spare replacements on hand for multi-microphone setups or to quickly swap out caps that become dented or clogged, minimizing downtime during sessions.

They come in a cocoa (brown) finish, which provides a discreet, low-profile appearance on stage or in broadcast settings.
