K&M 199 5-stars Reviews

Top Quality

Great quality as always from K&M

Suitable for "a lighter setup"

The build quality and how compact and transportable the stand is, are great benefits, I wish it would be a tiny bit beefier so it can sustain a bigger load (e.g. "mic screen" + microphone without me worrying about someone tripping close to it and destroying the whole setup), but overall as a mic stand it's a really high-quality product, I am sure I will come back to this brand in the future.

K&M 199 stand

I'm using this stand with the K&M 19740 iPad holder to mount a 12.9" iPad Pro. This stand has a root circle of 720mm so is very stable and reduces the risk of it being knocked over in crowded venues. The stand also has a 3/8" screw mount which exactly matches the tripod mount on the 19740 holder. The stand is suitable for both seated and standing performance.

In summary, this stand is reassuringly secure for mouting an expensive iPad, and is strongly recommended.

Very convenient

I'm using the mic stand in my home studio. The studio is very compact and I don't have the room to leave mic stands set up after a recording session. I have become completely fed up with the hassle of setting up my old mic stands with their boom arms, and seemed to spend more time getting the mics at the right height and position than actually recording.

I am so glad I bought this. Its ability to be set at a lower height than most mic stands was a real boon. For so long I have been fiddling with a boom arm to get the mics low enough to record acoustic guitar when I am sitting down. Now it's just so easy.

It's also tall enough, at full extension, to use as a mic stand for the sax and at a lower height for vocals. It is a bit wobbly when it is fully extended, but it is fine for me as I'm not jumping around causing the stand to sway.

I'll probably get another one for convenience. I will then be able to hang the stands on the wall set at the correct height, with the T-bar and suspension cages for the mics permanently installed. Then, hopefully, set up time will be minimal and I will be able to get down to recording some tracks before my enthusiasm runs out.

Great cheap quality stand

Great for its money! K&M, that is all!

Solid

Nice reliable stand from K&M I fin fall of their products extremely good quality and this is no exception! I use this as it has good height range low-high for my iPad mount (also by K&M)

Can't fault it

Bought this for use with a K&M iPad stand, an it's perfect for the job! Can't fault K&M!
