Title: Seeking rec's for a mic stand for at853's/at943's
Post by: George on April 19, 2004, 11:42:07 AM
Hey everyone!  Now that my rig is complete for the time being, what kind of mic stand should i buy for these stealth mics?  I have an invitation to tape some live acts and will definitely need a stand and i got a dmb show coming up at the tweeter center.  I don't think i want a stand with a big foot print.  Tia mates!

Got mine on ebay for 45 and I love it. Footprint isn't really "small" but its a 10fter which is as big as I need.

So i contacted soundpro and they gave me these links:

for the stand:  http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/category.cgi?category=search&item=SP-PMS-1&type=store (http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/category.cgi?category=search&item=SP-PMS-1&type=store)

choices for the mic holders:

http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/category.cgi?category=search&item=SP-DTS-11&type=store (http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/category.cgi?category=search&item=SP-DTS-11&type=store)
http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/category.cgi?category=search&item=AT8438&type=store (http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/category.cgi?category=search&item=AT8438&type=store)

I was leaning towards the second link for the holder, the stand only goes up to 8', should i go elsewhere for a stand?  I was thinking bhphoto, i think i may contact them too for opinions on what stand would be the best for my at's, feel free to drop in and give your opinion, thanks!

I got that 10 ft one from Ebay also from jandkgroup for only 35 bucks + shipping.   Doesn't look like they have any up for sale at the moment...maybe they ran out?  

They do have the 13 foot ones available it looks like.
I kinda wish I got a 13 foot one...if anyone is dying for a 10 foot one I'd sell be willing to sell mine so I can upgrade ;p

It isn't as pretty of a stand as a bogan one but it does the job for a great price.  Footprint can be adjusted to a reasonable size.   It is completely black except for the brass coupling.    Some people like black for low profile...downside is drunken/stupid people may not see it as well and bump into it more often.

Are you referring to this:  http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=NavBar&A=getItemDetail&Q=&sku=5602&is=REG&si=spec#goto_itemInfo

if so, i can always go to this store and buy it in person, kinda short for 6' but i'll be mostly using it in a small bar.
