Is there a difference between Vintage, Classic and Old mics? Yes! Vintage is an old classic mic that still works. Classic is the one that was popular--and you can't afford. And old is......probably me and you because we recognize some of these old mics.

Rycote Mic Suspension
Have we seen this somewhere before?
REMOVE THE WEAK LINK
FROM YOUR RECORDING CHAIN
If you want a quality vocal sound, you need quality components all the way down the line.
You’ve invested in good mics and mic preamps; why let your sound down with a throwaway elasticated microphone suspension?
Most suspensions rely on the same basic elastic cat's-cradle concept, a design that has remained unchanged for nearly 60 years. The InVision™ USM, by contrast, makes use of 21st-century technology and materials.
The InVision™ USM is based on Rycote’s patented vibration- reducing Lyre mounts, and can accept round and flat-sided large-diaphragm instrument mics from 18 to 55mm in diameter.
Attenuation of unwanted vibrations, handling and stand- borne noise is up to 12dB better than traditional elasticated designs. That means it’s often twice as good across the frequency spectrum!
The InVision™ USM Lyres are ex- tremely durable; made from an unbreakable material, Hytrel™, they will never lose their tension or need re-threading.
From the Rycote website. No word on price.
