Great value stand

I was needing a short mic stand to mic a cello (don't laugh, there's a good reason!). This worked great. Solid on the base and solid extension. I suppose my only issue is that it could be a little more stable but then it would be a different product so no complaints from me.

Well built and solid, a bit of a handful.

Keeps the microphone in place, clearly made to be put against an amp and works perfectly for that. It can be a bit of a handful to reconfigure, but that's a sacrifice in the name of compactness and simplicity.

Cheap and well thought out

I like this stand I bought two of them - I use them live or studio - very compact stable and well designed.

Needed tightening, but a good solid mic stand

I bought a couple of these for tabletop microphones. They're really solid... now. When they came, they both collapsed as soon as a microphone was inserted as the hinge was really loose. A quick adjustment with a 4mm allen key, however, and they're both really solid now.

Perfect for guitar amps

This small low profile mic stand is made with high quality parts and can handle being used constantly.

One minor issue is with big heavy microphones, this stand will hold them but the main arm does un clip slightly and could collapse.

But appart from that this mic stand is pretty perfect for guitar amps and is completely stable with medium and smaller sized microphones.

Millenium DS-30

Handy piece of gear.

Cheap but handy and useful. Cheap is not alwasy poor quality. Hear its not, actually very well made. Not for heavy duty robust handle off sourse but is studio and at home absolutely nothing more you need for the job.

Does it's job, need it do more?

This was CHEAP, you need a little round thread fitting piece thingy if you are putting a shure mic on it. That was a negative, but not really any fault of the product...

Seems to work, holds the mic --> 5 stars.

Stable and quite stirdy

Has worked very well for 5 years as a table stand for my microphone. I guess there's nothing more to say! :)

Bigger than I expected

This is a bit bigger than I thought (should have ordered the DS-10 for what I intended this to do) but it folds nicely and not take up too much space on the go. This is stable enough hold a large diaphrame condenser mic in a shock mount.

Good quality, not quite K&M, but very close.

Good basic stand

I got this for my desk and it doesn't take too much room. Does it's job well and for this price range it is truly a quality mini-stand!

Much stronger and more useful than it looks - low profile but very handy!

I bought this on a bit of a whim, as it kept coming up on searches for small mic stands (that I use a lot of). I had assumed it would probably not be very stable. I was pleasantly surprised to find it sits very sturdily as an instrument mic stand for a seated musician. Add a K&M 18872 extension rod or a K&M 21431 Mini Boom Arm and you can even get it close to standing height (though the boom can make it topple if you extend it too far). An added use I have for it is as a lightweight tripod for Go Pros or phones (by adding a thread adaptor.) If I want more height, I sit it on an IKEA-style stool (the ones with the holes). The little tailpiece at the back sits neatly in one of the holes making it very sturdy. These are so light and compact when folded up, its almost worth having one in the car for emergencies.

BD Mic Stand

It's a great little stand! The one issue I have is that when it is folded up, the tension nut to tighten the mic scratches the paint of the diagonal legs... Like I said, great little mic stand...!

Millenium DS-30 Bass Drum Mic Stand

Nothing too it. Great for the t-bone BD-200 Bass Drum Mic ... I tend to point the mic at the beater to pick up the crack and this stand is small enough not to get in the way. Packs away really small. Some tips folks: use a swan/goose neck to make it more flexible for positioning. The locking system is a bit weak if you put weight on it so, either drill a 1/4" (5mm) hole through the plastic mount and the pole and use a pin, or unbolt the stem and turn it around. It won't fold away quite so short but it will not fold up with weight again.

Great limited use mic stand.

I love the simplicity and the size of this stand.

Very easy to carry around, very easy to set up, not much can go wrong.

Found out it is too tall to mic up a 1x12 cabinet but for bass drum or a 4x12 is great!

Very practical table mic stand.

I use the Millenium DS-30 as part of my recording workstation with a fairly small and light condenser mic. The stand is very strong and steady once the legs are locked into place. It is quite heavy which makes it good and stable. It can also be extended slightly for adjustment. It will work fine as a floor stand for amplifiyers also.

Great product great price.

The only reason it got 4 stras for quality is because the lead clip snapped the first time I used it.

A very good short microphone stand

I have purchased it to put it in front of a 4x12 guitar cabinet. It is very stable and you have anough adjustability to get the sound you need. 5/8 inch tread so you need a adapter to 3/8 inch microphone clamp. Well build and does the job.
