A mounting for detachable securing a windscreen to a microphone includes a magnetic ring on one of the windscreen or microphone and a complementary steel ring on the other of the windscreen or microphone. A plastic ring is provided to hold the magnetic ring. The magnetic engagement between the magnetic ring and the steel ring will permit firm coupling of the windscreen and microphone in use. The mounting permits easy disengagement in the event the windscreen is not needed, or to permit maintenance or repair of the microphone. The plastic ring is retained on the microphone between the body and the head, which are interconnected by complementary threads on the exterior of the body/head and the interior of the other of the head/body.

An improved brush contact for a phonograph tone arm dynamic stabilizer. The contact includes bristles on a base, with free ends fanned in an arc. A portion of the bristles contact a record surface. Lateral movement of the tone arm across the record pivots the bristles and base, bringing new bristles into contact with the record surface.
