Audio-Technica AT8646QM Shock Mount Plate

The Audio-Technica AT8646QM is a low-profile shock-mount plate engineered to quiet the rumble, thumps, and table-born vibrations that sabotage intelligibility in meeting spaces. Designed specifically for quick-mount gooseneck microphone workflows, it drops into a surface cutout on a lectern or conference table and mechanically decouples the mic from the mounting plane. A suspended rubber isolation panel provides effective mechanical noise isolation, so speech stays clear even when presenters adjust papers, tap the desk, or step up to the podium. The integrated XLRF connector accepts lightweight plug-in microphones and keeps wiring tidy beneath the surface for clean installs in boardrooms, classrooms, courtrooms, and worship spaces.

Because it’s a purpose-built surface-mount microphone accessory, the AT8646QM is as much about reliability as it is about acoustics. Its simple, rugged architecture is easy for integrators to install and maintain, while the compact footprint preserves table real estate and sightlines. Pair it with an Audio-Technica UniPoint gooseneck or other compatible lectern microphone to build a discreet talk position that resists bumps and handling noise. The design targets real-world applications—conference table microphone positions, pulpit mic placements, and panel desks—where professional polish matters and downtime isn’t an option. If you need a straightforward way to hard-mount a gooseneck while keeping the room quiet, the AT8646QM provides a dependable, brand-correct solution.
