What I did with the MKH-60 to fit it and a MKH-30 into a mono
suspension/windscreen was to mount the MKH-60 in the regular manner with
mono clips. Then piggyback the MKH-30 off the 60 using dual clips which
are not supported. This will only work with the Sennheiser suspension
with it's open circle supports, Rycote's closed supports don't give
enough room. It makes for a very compact M/S setup. It's all shown in my
M/S page:

The MKH-60 works pretty well as M/S with the MKH-30. I'm planning to try
running a M/S with the MKH-816's I have to see how that does. My
expectation is that with the longer shotgun it will be more suitable for
fairly narrow subjects. I can already detect some narrowing with the MKH-60.
I'd like having the pdf if you can arrange it. I'm experimenting with
all kinds of new setups.

I'd love to hear how it does.
