Need help on replacing wind screen for EV PL-16
Hello, I have an ancient PL-16 ElectroVoice mic. I removed the wire grid to
inspect the mic one day, and the wind screen material that comes with the mic (under the grid) just dissolved into dust. Anyway I cleaned it out nicely, and now want to replace that small 50-cent-size piece of foam with another. You guys probably do stuff like this all the time - what material do you recommend? |

Have you checked with EV? Hal Laurent Baltimore |

Get in touch with Electro-Voice; they probably keep the screens in stock. Peace, Paul |

I'm not certain about the RE-16, but I just ordered a bunch of replacement parts from EV for some 635A's. The foam bits cost $0.45 each. Wire mesh grilles were $4.30 each. The RE-16 is a fine mic, well worth bringing back to it's original spec. Mike T. |
