Millenium MS 2005 Reviews

The product doesn't feel high end, but it's good enough for home use.

I gave it 5 stars because it's still very decent and you can't get anywhere near it's price tag on other products.

Having worked with many different models and brands, I found this one to be very reliable and practical. It seems to be very well built and I like the metal handle that makes it a lot easier to adjust the stand position.

Boom-arm holder might break but it doubles as straight stand

I bought this for public rehearshal studio, it served several months but then someone broke the boom arm holder. I guess it was the same situation previous reviewer had ? if you tighten the screw too much, the metal nut breaks out of the plastic part. So yeah ? it's not bullet-proof and needs delicate handling.

However, I think it might be repairable at this point with an epoxy resin, which I didn't bother to do because the stand actually doubles as a straight stand ? just remove the boom arm, it has another mic screw at the top. Pretty cool for the price! :)

Breaks easilly, but does the job...

Not the best built quality, cause my upper stand broke after two months of use, but if you give extra care, it could last.

Handling and setup is easy.

Good value for money, very adjustable

The best thing about this is the different sections of it have easy to adjust heights. The little metal handle means its so easy to higher and lower very quickly. It doesn't look brilliant, compared to others I have seen, but for a studio, this is very good for the money.

Millenium MS-2005

In my opinion, a great stand both for vocals and for instrument needs. Stand itself is sturdy and used in band setting doesnt show any signs of damage.

All in all, I would recommend this stand to everyone who is interested.

OK for singers but not for guitarist/singers

As long as the boom is not extended it is fine, but with the boom extended it suffers from droop. The plastic adjustment mechanisms are just not up to the job.

Dependable and easy to use

The stand is really easy to set up fast. It seems pretty well built for any situation other than throwing it all over the stage like Axl Rose would do.

Not to mention the affordable price.

Don't tilt it too much.

This microphone stand is something i can only recommend for singers that sings stand up position. Because the stand is very light and when you tilt it, it loses stability. I would look for another stand.

Boom arms will need to be quickly replaced

The boom arms on these mic stands are of extremely low quality and will break after only adjusting them for a few times.

The upside is, the stand itself can be reused with spare boom arms. I've now gotten rid of all the original boom arms for these stands, and replaced them with K&Ms.

I will definitely not be buying anymore of these stands, for any purpose, unless I'm really, really desparate. The boom arms should be considered one time use only!

Not recommended! Broke after 3 months.

I was using this stand with a normal dynamic microphone and it was working for around 3 months. The problem started when I connected a bigger, condenser microphone (Rhode NT1A). It was too heavy for the stand and the arm was going down. After first try of fixing the screw in the stand tighter the whole part broke and I need to buy a new stand.

If you are need a cheap stand for a dynamic microphone and you wont change the position of the arm too often it might be a product for you, otherwise, buy a proper stand.

Good for the price

The Millennium stands are incredibly cheap, so you get a lot for the price. I have since upgraded to the Hercules stands to hold my T-Bone Elvis mics, however i still use these stands for holding mics in front of the amplification.

Pro's cheap and lightweight

Cons, not very sturdy for singers

Great product for the price

Nice well rounded product. Does what it says on the tin. Simple and haven't had any problems with it since I purchased it. Very good value for money.

Why Spend More?

I have used these stands at a couple of gigs and also use them at home for recording. They are fairly light, pretty sturdy and easy to set up in the position you want. There isn't much more you could really ask for in a mic stand.

With this product you get a decent quality mike stand at a price far below some other brands. Sure you could spend more and get something a little more durable but I can't see it being worth the investment unless maybe you have an incredible heavy gigging schedule. Also, these stands may not be particularly suitable for certain situations, like holding a pair of heavy tube mics as overheads when recording a drum kit, but many more expensive stands would also struggle with this.

I have only had these stands a few months and only time will tell how reliable/durable they really are but personally, unless something cheaper comes to the market, I can't see myself buying any other brand of mic stand in the future.

Pretty good if you're not going to be moving it a lot

The quality is ok, but since I was changing the height a lot the plastic broke apart. . If you just left it without changing it im sure this product is fine. Price is nice but this isn't very durable. Tightening the swivel is quite annoying.

Excellent mic stand for the price!

I bought a couple of these stands to use in my home studio. I use them as overhead mic stands for my drum kit. These stands are excellent for the price! They may not be the most robust, but they do the job.

For the price, these are a no brainer!!!

Does the job

No problems with this mic at all used in studio and live settings and holds up perfect no need to spend lots of money on mic stands when you have this

Not For General Use

A good stand if you are not taking it up and down all the time - Its plastic pressure screw between stand and boom means that the slightest over tighten and the Plastic Thread sheers. I have 6 that have all broken after three uses and have now bout more expensive stands which work much better

Not brilliant, but ok for the price

I can't seem to get the mic stand as stable as I would like it to be. I especially can't get the boom arm to keep still.

That said, this is about the cheapest mic stand I could find, and by taking off the boom arm I got it to keep still enough to be acceptable.

It is probably worth paying a bit more and getting something more stable, however it does the job I want it to do so given the low price I'm happy with the purchase.

Budget Stands

Needed some stands for a jam night and these seem to fit the bill nicely.

They are cheap and lightweight and probably wont stand up to gigging level use once a week.

They do what you need them to do and thats hold a mic in place. Good height adjustment and reach

Cheap and cheerful

all good.
