Title: Extra Wide Wireless Microphone Clip
Post by: Art Nadelman on March 30, 2015, 09:13:29 AM: I'm starting to get more and more singers who want to use crystal wireless microphones. However, they are wider than easily fit in the Shure and Sennheiser clips that I own.

Is anyone aware of a wider clip that works with these?

Thanks.

Ive never seen a bigger clip or experienced this problem yet.... However, what about taking a piece of pipe the size of the studded mic (steel or aluminum would be best) clip a Shure or sennheiser clip on it and dip it in boiling water for a few seconds then let it set maybe even dip it in cold water.

That's a good idea!

Fat, wireless clips.
