Hi Peter,
I'm not sure it's convention, but I'd personally the solder fly leads from =
the capsules to the mic cables. You would really need to take steps to prev=
ent the connection to the capsule suffering a direct pull. Something that =
clamps the cable screwed to the back of the barrier would probably be suffi=
cient. A small piece of wood held by two screws would be all that was neces=
sary.
cheers
Paul
