Martyn,
I use the Schoeps hollow spherical windscreens on my DPA omnis (4006)
with my Jecklin disc. (http://www.posthorn.com/S_pops.html#w5d)
I created some spacers to help the windscreen fit over the mic with
rubber tubing, you would have to do the same thing with the MKH 8000
series, they are just a bit smaller than the Schoeps.
These windscreens have a plastic cage that fits over the mic and a
thin foam sphere with a fuzzy fabric over the outside. I think they
work great and don't color the sound too much.
