Interestingly enough enough my KM84 started life as a KM85i!
A KM85i is a Flash Gordon looking hand held Nuemann.
There was a KM85i at a studio I worked at and everyone said it was broken.
I aquired it and opened it up to discover that inside was shock-mounted KM84!!!!
The KM84 was in perfect condition because it had been inside the body of the KM85i.
The XLR connector fits the KM85i body, so the KM84 portion has the larger back piece of the KM85 wire-tied to the body.
The wires come out of the KM84 body and go up to the XLR

I don't understand. A KM84 and a KM85 are exactly the same microphone, but with a different capsule. How can an 84 be "inside" an 85?
