Wow didn’t really know what to expect as far as quality for this mix stand but it is so well made I can’t wait to use it for a live gig this weekend!

Samson always delivers on quality for value. The stand is very sturdy and ideal for guitar players or keyboard players. It’s a reasonable height and can hold a variety of microphones. Highly recommend.

I purchased this stand a few weeks ago. I liked it so much that I purchased another one. One stand is in my "recording studio" supporting a condenser microphone (yeah... heavy) and this new stand will be used with my Sennheiser e835s weighing in at 330g (.73 pounds).As you can see in the photo, there is no issue with the stand falling (as long as the boom is over one of the legs) and the boom supports almost a full pound of microphone. The boom compression lock is also very tight. The boom is a little short as is the height of the stand, but I play acoustic 12-string in a sitting position, so no worries.The stand is very sturdy I have not had anything fall or slip. Again, the boom should be over one of the legs if you plan on using the boom straight out. Give the boom an angle and move it back a little and it should stand upright regardless of where it is (over leg or not).Great price and product for the budget minded musician. Highly recommended.

I owned a competing brand of inexpensive boom stand but the threads stripped on one of the adjustment knobs so I went looking elsewhere. Glad I found this one - even cheaper than the competing cheap brand, but the threads are all metal inserts in the plastic fittings (no metal screws going directly into plastic threads) so I believe it will prove to be more robust.The only downside is that the tripod legs, boom, and main shaft are slightly shorter than a standard mic stand. For me it works because I am using it in a cramped home studio anyway. For my purposes this might actually be a plus. But if you are on stage and need as much reach you can get with the boom, keep in mind that it is about 4 1/2" shorter than a standard length boom. The main shaft is significantly shorter than a standard mic stand as well, raising only to 44" from the floor.I would and probably will buy another for my own studio use. If you are on stage, standing, needing to mic a fiddle from above or something like that this would definitely be too short. If you remove the boom, it would be too short for a standing vocal mic. With the boom on it would be just fine for a vocal mic, but you might not get the clearance you are used to - you would have enough room for your acoustic guitar, but if you swung around all the way to the left you would hit the stand with the guitar neck.For home studio use where I am normally sitting when I record anyway, it's just the thing. Superior to the competing brand for this purpose because of the metal threads.

The build quality of this stand feels decent, but I had an issue with mine out of the box. The top portion that slides out and extends to allow vertical placement of the mic never really stuck. If the top bit is pulled up and out to position the mic, it will slide all the way back down to the base pole. This makes its max usable high in most scenarios a little more than one meter from the floor. Still usable for miking amps and some instruments, but I will be seeking a more reliable solution for recording vocals.***************************************************************************************************EDIT (9.7.17): Chalk it up to user error. I originally had an issue setting the height of the base portion of this stand, rendering it less practical for recording vocals or miking sources of audio that were more than a few feet from the ground. Upon a closer examination amid one of my recent sessions, I noticed that this stand is designed with a twisting fastener for the base of the stand (the bit that looks almost like a handle). The "issue" I had before was merely my leaving the twisting lock on the vertical part unfastened.Needless to say, I was very pleasantly surprised and humbled to have my disappointment instantly converted to relief.One of the simplest ways this stand could be a bit better is by negating one of the most formidable differences that separates this from more professional stands: the mass (or weight). The light weight of this stand makes it great for portability, changing its position, et cetera; on the other hand, if this stand had more mass, it'd support heavier mics much more reliably, and wobble from tugs on XLR cables would be effectively combatted with the counter-balance function a heavier stand provides.To summarize the preceding bit, if you just need a basic stand for small gigs and simple (or flexible) recording setups, this can easily be worth more than $20 worth to your workflow. If you work with studio musicians, professional audio projects, or professional gear(!!!), a higher-end stand is most definitely in order: not only to prevent your Neumann mics from crashing to the ground, but also to facilitate "perfect takes" without issues like the mic wobbling (changing position). That being said, this is an extremely affordable backup stand, the integrity of which even professionals will be able to appreciate. Can't hurt to have one of these in case your main stands are compromised, or if an artist unexpectedly needs another stand to mic an acoustic solo performance.Changed rating from three stars to five. May as well grab one if you're still here.

Le pongo cinco estrellas no porque sea el mejor atril con boom que hay en el mercado, si no por la relación precio-calidad es muy buena. El producto es muy barato y ofrece algo aceptable.La base es algo delgada y puede parecer frágil, pero cumple su función, no es la base mas solida, pero si funciona para un uso moderado, tiene una buena altura y es muy liviana. Si tienes intención de darle un uso que no sea rudo, esta es la opción. El envio tardo, porque me imagino que la traen desde EEUU (aunue estaba especificado cuando la compre que tardaría de 2 a 4 semanas), pero todo muy bien, siempre excelente servicio de Amazon.

Having bought a different model about a year ago and using it every week, I found myself needing a replacement at short notice and decided upon this model. The surprise to me was how small the package was (mic stand... not a personal reference) but how ingenious this particular model is.The stand is no more than (less than probably) 2 foot long. My first reaction; before playing with it, was "how an earth is this going to be big enough?!" but it is! The base has a clasp locking system rather than a threaded knob and the central pole houses an extending pole to take you up beyond Hobbit height (which is about my height). This functionality is found to be really useful when mic-ing up amps as it sits a little over 2 foot heigh when not extended; meaning your boom is not having to over extend.For vocalists, this mic stand is perfectly adequate too... Unless you're over about 6'2"... In which case you might want to choose a different stand as I'm not sure this would reach much beyond that height. For the more challenged in height like me... Or even 'average'... This stand is perfect.

Le problème de ce genre d'accessoire, c'est souvent la légèreté et la fragilité d'une fabrication chinoise... Ce n'est pas le cas pour celui-ci.Ce pied est lourd, très bien conçu et fabriqué avec soin : les éléments de serrage ou de blocage tiennent parfaitement la perche en position, même avec un micro de studio relativement lourd en bout de perche. Un clip permet de garder le fil du micro le long du montant vertical.Si l'on place l'ensemble en position verticale, le micro peut arriver jusqu'à 1,80 m au-dessus du sol en dépliant complètement le montant vertical à deux éléments, et en plaçant verticalement la perche oblique qui mesure 60 cm.Le tout se replie et se range en quelques secondes dans sa boîte qui fait seulement 80 cm de long. Ce n'est pas du tout encombrant.Un très bon achat, pour un prix très raisonnable, qui rendra service pendant des années.

I purchased this to go along with my Rock Band 4 kit so I can drum/strum and sing along. I'm not a professional singer or anything so I can't comment heavily on the specs, but I will comment on my recreational use of this stand.Pros: it's decently priced in comparison to others, especially the Rock Band stand which costs over twice as much. It's very lightweight and seems stable enough for simple use. At it's maximum height, it can easily be used by someone who's around 6ft tall and the knobs for adjustment are quite simple to use as well. There's a mic clip included which can hold the RB4 mic and a cord loop if you want to run the mic cord along the stand and not have it all over the place.Cons: it can be knocked over quite easily at it's full extension (height and boom), particularly if you're doing the dumb singer "solos" in RB4 that requires you to tap the mic. I've had to catch my stand a few times doing that.Overall, I've had this for about a week and have used it everyday since without any problems. Great buy!
