is this inside foam for sale separately? Or are there other options to replace it with?

Replacement foams are indeed available at the link provided by sysrqer, for example this one for a shure model:zoco wrote:Thank you. But i do not mean that kind of foams. I mean the foam inside the grill ball.
That looks like a foam grill to replace the totall (metal) grill or as outside cover of it.. Does not look like the inside foam from a metal grill.CrocoDuck wrote:Replacement foams are indeed available at the link provided by sysrqer, for example this one for a shure model:zoco wrote:Thank you.

Aw yeah, now that I look at it better it does seem like something that goes on the outside.zoco wrote:That looks like a foam grill to replace the totall (metal) grill or as outside cover of it.. Does not look like the inside foam from a metal grill.
Acoustic foam is not a trival product, and I know from experience as an Acoustic Engineer that it involves some development time. However, it is still a very cheap part. I think that most of the cost of spares comes from the fact that there is perhaps a very little demand, and most are produced locally by third party manufacturers wherever the factories for the whole product are. Perhaps, it is not commercially valuable to export them in isolation.zoco wrote:Extraordinair costs to replace a few dimes of simple foam.We are talking foam!

That is my thought too. There is no high specifications in it. It only has to let through all sound and stop the spitting and puffing. If an external foam (mostly 1/4 inch or more thick) can do this job each slightly open foam must can do as replacement.CrocoDuck wrote:Acoustic foam is not a trival product, and I know from experience as an Acoustic Engineer that it involves some development time.
