Samson MK-10 Microphone Boom Stand
Size:Single
The MK10 Microphone Boom Stand combines the crucial elements of lightweight durability with an attractive and functional design. It comes a very small package that folds up easily for transport anywhere you need it.
The quality is great and the price is reasonable which we appreciate very much
When you get this thing in your hands you will notice the incredible build quality
So, I found the second cheapest boom mic stand available and got something of much greater quality than I expected (the cheapest was the Amazon Basics, but the videos showing the weak boom had me worried).
I'm going to be very honest, I wasn't expecting the stand to be nearly as stable or as sturdy as it turned out to be
I tried shortening the boom arm (thus bringing the mic closer to the stand's center and increasing the weight to the counter-side of the stand from the end of the boom), however the stand would still fall over unless the mic were directly above the base (thus defeating the purpose of having a boom in the first place).Probably fine for lighter mics, but for anything with some weight, suggest looking elsewhere.
I set it up anyway and honestly, it's to wobbly for my taste, sure you can toss a gear bag or sand bag on it, then you are defeating the purpose of a light weight compact mic stand if you are trin to get away hauling around Atlas style weighted Mic stands

They are lightweight and therefore you have to take a little extra precaution when using them, for example you have to position the arm in the right direction, directly over a leg, so it carries the weight properly and therefore won't fall over.

The stand I received does its job amazingly well, and while I've got it practically on the ground, it's still VERY stable and doesn't wobble at all, even if I accidentally nudge it, which I really like, as that helps ensure the safety of my mic
