boom mic stand suggestions

Post by damasp »

I have mic stand that was cheap and doesn't work well any longer. I'm looking for a descent one that won't droop. I sit when playing so the boom arm needs to be extended. I was reading reviews on this K&M Stand that seems worthy.
K&M 210/9 Mic Stand w/Telescoping Boom -Black

Can anyone make a suggestion?

I use a triad orbit boom attached to my baby spider pro stand, very stable, expensive, though-

I tried many others and they just don't cut it.

Ouha thanks, it seems to be a veru good one...I just discovered it. Do you think it could be used as a large condenser mic boom and stand or the ultimate studio stand is still way Heavier?

I don't use it that way, just for dynamic mic for band vocals.

however, if you had one of their stands as well, it is absolutely the most rock-solid product of its type I have ever seen, I think it it designed for studio use.

Lots of videos on the web-

Ok, thanks, yes, I found the video, they have a wall mount plate that will be perfect in my Den which is small...3,5mX2.5m....That's why I haven't bought yes a big stand, I wanted to find something to save floor imprint and this is the one, thanks again...
