Good stand

it does its thing perfectly though the base could be heavier

Nice quality stand

Nice and sturdy stand. It's a quality stand the handles and looks good. The only downside is the plastic handle which seems a bit cheap

Sturdy and safe

Will take the weight of an NT2A mic. Would have preferred it to have an arm that popped out, so i could rec piano and voc at same time (stand sits bit too far from vox, behind the keys), but perfect for mounting a mic screen.

Great stand

I bought one of this for my vocal mic and SE reflexion filter. It can handle them easily. The foot is quite heavy, but if you move around it I would suggest putting some additional weigh on it just to be sure not to let it fall. It is build very well and it looks like it is going to last for a while.

Will buy another one in the future.

Another amazing product from K&M

Not a lot to say really, we already have these in hire stock and loved that they come with a bundle of kit with the Achat system.

Good price/quality ratio

Just a tip: a thread adapter should be provided since the screw type is not clear in the product description or datasheet.

Useful in tight spaces

We use these stands for overhead condenser mics on the church drum kit. They are easier to find space for amongst the drum kit than a stand with a tripod base. We have added a telescopic boom, however they are not weighty enough to support anything other than a pencil condenser mic at full stretch. A failing of our adaptation not the mic stand. The build quality is to the usual high K&M standard with a 5 year warranty.

Singer likes it

Singer was had the '3 leg' variety of mic stands and he has a habit of resting his foot on one of the legs, bending it. Eventually, it becomes wobbly.

This heavy, round base means that's not an issue any more and take up less room on stage, which is great.

Good for the price

Not the most stable mic stand in the world, particularly if you're fitting a reflection filter, but overall the quality is good and I still use it for recording.

Functional mic stand - good value

I bought this for my girlfriend (now wife) for our vintage jazz duo (guitar and vocals.) She uses it with her vintage Sure 'Elvis' Mic. It works absolutely fine. If I use it when playing my guitar, I have to be careful as the upright can get in the way. You need a boom if you are singing with an instrument. Also, it is not a stable as some. That said, for a vocalist only, it works fine, suits a vintage mic and doesn't cost much.

Pretty heavy, but does it's job well for the price.

The bottom plate is pretty heavy, so it's not the easiest stand to carry around. However, once assembled it's sturdy and easy to adjust. Overall a great mic stand for the price!

Good for the first mike pole

It does the job. However the way the pole's height is set could be a little better. Trying to loosen the handle that allows setting the height loosen the whole pole from the foot. You need to use your two hands. No practical if you have an instrument to handle at the same time.

Good quality anyway. I recommand if you just need it at home or in your repetion room.

Hard wearing, long lasting.

This is my second one of these. My last one was gigged for years, and was well able for the hardship. Only reason I'm on to my second one is because i lost my last at a venue, and it was cheaper to buy another than to get the last one back! Love it

Good stand

The foot could have been a bit heavier for stability.
