MS 2005 : Good if you are on a Budget

I bought two of these Microphone Stands around 6 months ago. I didn't have a big budget and bought them primarily for use in the house for small scale recording, usually just a guitar and vocal. When I received these in the post they were exactly what I expected, which is far from a bad thing! They feel reasonably well made and are perfect for if you aren't going to use them to death. I would recommend getting more robust stands if you were going to use them for heavy gigging. I have only two things that I could say were real cons about buying these stands. The first is that when you twist the handle that controls the boom section it moves it both up and down and in and out, this is not an issue most of the time however can become a problem when trying to be very accurate in positioning of microphones. The other minor issue is the weight of mic it can hold stable, if using a reasonably heavy large diaphragm condenser the stand is not cable at holding it in place if the boom is far forward.

However as a spare or minimum use stand this works fine and is an absolute bargain!
