Well....

It would take a collection of rather odd designs to make this kind of thing audible in general...

Of course, we can't rule that out in every case, certainly.

The question of weight is only part of the equation, the surface area, shape, etc, are all important and there is no overall rule of what might make a good capture transducer, except that bigger and lighter will most likely capture more.

So a large, flat knob made out of a very light material would be more likely to capture acoustic energy than a small, heavy material.

But the likelihood of either of them picking up enough energy to actually excite microphonic components SHOULD be miniscule. SHOULD be.
