Millenium MS 2005 Reviews

It is a good product

Keeping in mind the price it is a pretty good product. Although it has a couple of disadvantages saying the handling. The feeling is rough and when I try to adjust the mic on it I have the feeling that it will break. It is a very nice stand if you use it for stable usage. Just for a recording studio, neither a live perfomance nor for a rehearshal. The quality is good, not any mention worthy difference with other similar mic stands.

Excelente produto!

Comprei dois que usamos na sala de ensaio.

São bastante resistentes e facilmente ajustáveis ás mais variadas circunstancias.

A qualidade destes suportes é bastante razoavél para o preço que custam.

Bargain Mic Stand

This is a no brainer actually.

This stand is relatively firm and has two points in which to install a microphone (I'm using both to mic acoustic guitar). You can also use it as a drum overhead mic stand (it goes high enough).

And it's a real bargain.

Good Quality for what you pay

A mic stand that for how much it costs is very reliable. I have had it for over a year now and have used it quite regularly and have so far not had any problems with it; no breakages, loosening around the boom etc. The boom can be extended out as far as it can go with mic on it and the counter balance is great on it (Should the boom be placed over a leg of the stand and depending on size & weight of the mic used). Another plus and feature to this mic stand is that you can attach an additional microphone to it via the thread next to the locking screw of the boom so if the stand is being used in a live sense then it can be used to mic your vocals as well as an acoustic guitar with just the one stand.

Great stand - multi purpose!

This is a great stand.

It can be used as a vertical stand and also a boom stand.

The fixings are tight and sturdy. Because the stand is light, it can move around during use, but if you are using it for static work, it is more than adequate.

The price is right too!

Good quality.

I had already bought here the same, but one model ago ... I mentioned that constantly adjust the height, the product was not strong, and eventually sag and microphone almost falls to the ground. So this is where I bought this, and so far has given me no problems and I am regularly often the microphone, because of several people sing into the microphone. Good product!

Excelent Budget Mic' Stand

Been using these regularly now for over sic months. Working a treat. Will buy more :)

Good for the price

It's good for the price this stand, it's not going to stand up to a lot of abuse like some of the expensive German stuff does, but like anything if you look after it it should give years of service and of course well kept gear looks smart on stage,

So nothing really negative to say.

Great Mic Stand!

This is a great stand at a great price! What more can I say! Exactly as described and looks good in use. It folds up nice and small for storage, and yet is very stable when in use on stage etc. A fantastic item, that I will almost certainly buy again!

Good quality for studio use....

I bought these to use for my drum microphone overheads (T-Bone 800 series),

for recording my new band's début record. For the price they do the job very well,

and have even taken to using them in a live setting. They wouldn't be suitable

for heavier weighted microphone's, but do a great job if your on a budget.

Boom Clamp poorly designed

The boom clamp fell apart after very little use, with the metal inserts drawn through the plastic. Good for the money, but not for any continuous usage.

With stands you really get what you pay for.

The build quality of the Millenium stand family is not the best in business. Plastic is used in places where strength and stability is needed so if you are not really careful when opening the screws and hinges when adjusting the stand you could easily break it. This stand would be suitable for home or recording use but in a live situation i find this stand too weak and unstable. With stands it is really easy to see why some brands stands go for three to fives times higher price. If you want a microphone stand for home use this will suffice but live on stage I would go for the more expensive and sturdy models.

Cheap but not really stable stand

Cheap, good and satisfied totally its purpose! But quite stable, he is not. For athletic singer not necessarily recommendable :) After all, he folds up small and is it also light! As a backup in the trunk he is definitely good enough!

Broken after just a couple of uses

The plastic part that holds the arm got broken after a couple of uses. It just couldn't handle the pressure of the screws, although I didn't do anything extraordinary about it.

I won't buy it again.

great value boom stand

I bought this for home use and occasional travel

It folds away as compactly as you could ask for

Fully extended, it could be used for unambitious over-head mics

the boom hinge feels flimsy, and won't support a large mic while the arm pulled out fully, horizontally, but i imagine it would have no problem with a small mic like an NT5.

The main vertical portion is topped with another threaded bolt with an adapter for large clips. This allows you to remove the boom section leaving you with a straight stand, or support 2 mics on 1 stand, which should be an option on every stand but doesn't seem to be.

Good Joints

What I particularly like with this stand is the joint for rotating the boom, no plastic tighteners that make it drop if you have a heavy condenser mic on it. The metal tighteners make it stable and reliable. Very good value for price.

Poorly made

This was a replacement for my original that was poorly made. The Yoke/Hinge on which you adjust the angle of the mic stand is made of plastic and quite flimsy when being adjusted as if you don't adjust it correctly it weakens the joint and snaps the plastic.

As this is being used in a recording studio it does get used quite a bit in rehearsals as well as for recording, the theory of the design is quite good but put into practice and with the fact plastic has been used, it failed the field test when being used by musicians.

Pretty poor design really, waiting to see how long this one lasts before requiring a new one again.

Good stand

Very decent quality mic stand given how cheap it is. Was surprised by it's sturdiness. If you're just looking for something cheap then this more than does the job!

Have used it live several times.

Buy cheap, buy twice

Like so many others, my stand failed at the boom joint. Mainly because the joint is made from cheap, brittle plastic (terrible design), which broke in half during a live set. That it could could be used to hold two microphones was a nice feature, but is ultimately useless when it breaks so easily. Spend more and get a better quality product that will last.

Good

This is a good Stand. Its a little on the thin side, so its not as stable as other ones you can buy. Its not cheaply made though, so it should suit most people. It s little too thin to attach my hercules iPad clamp too. but thats about it
