I would get a quick connect lock on connector and use that for the microphone. The Atlas LO-2 fits that bill. If you don't want to epoxy the connector in permanently, there are thread repair adhesives that could hold the connector and still allow its removal. Those thread repair compounds do not hold up well in repeated use.
