Frequently asked questions

Do these products work together?

No. The MDA5 AT is a connector adapter for wireless systems, while the WM81 caps are protective covers for wired lavalier and headworn microphones. They address different parts of a wireless or wired microphone setup.

What is the MDA5 AT actually for?

The MDA5 AT adapter lets you connect AKG MICROLITE microphones directly to Audio-Technica bodypack transmitters, solving the problem of incompatible connectors when using equipment from different manufacturers.

Which AKG microphones do the WM81 caps fit?

The WM81 wiremesh caps are designed for the LC81 MD lavalier, EC81 MD ear-hook, and HC81 MD headworn reference cardioid microphones in the AKG Microlite range.

Why would I need five caps instead of one?

A five-pack lets you maintain multiple microphones in peak condition at once, keep spares on hand for quick replacement if one gets damaged, and ensure consistent tonal character across your entire microphone setup.
