Hummm. Considering that microphones are designed to handle SPLs in the 100+db range I suspect that most are really quite durable. Some for specialized applications might not be that sturdy but I suspect that any you are likely to encounter are not going to be harmed by tapping. Equally unless it is extreme and the gain is set really high I don't think it likely to harm anything else in the system. I have never seen or heard of one being damaged. When you think about it microphones are everywhere...phones, DJs, home devices of all sorts...even refrigerators. They take a lot of abuse and keep on working.

Good Listening
Bruce
