MS 2003 : Great for the price

Use case:

I use it for "studio live" recordings. It is set at the beginning and basically not handled anymore until the end of the act, so it is a very light usage.

How it feels:

Compared to a cheap K&M, this feels more flimsy, but it is also way cheaper. Once in a while you will have to tighten the screws of the feet, if you don't want that the feet hang down when you lift the stand.

Durability:

I have two of them, and I think I didn't use them more than 20 times each, so I can't say much besides that, for the moment, I had no problems.

Pros and cons:

for energetic live acts, tours and similar I would chose something more sturdy. For a studio usage or sporadic and "calm" live acts, the MS 2003 will allow you to save a lot of money.
