About the item
The Mic Stand is a microphone stand designed for floor and tabletop use. The stand offers a height-adjustment range of 11.2 to 15.75″, using a boom arm measuring 12.2″ in length that helps you close-mic sources like guitar amplifiers or vocals (in a tabletop setting).
The flat, unobtrusive base saves space, while four elastic rubber feet on the base fight against the sonic issues associated with coupling.
The boom arm adjusts with a wingnut, while a clutch facilitates height adjustments. The stand is constructed out of steel and features a two-piece folding design. At the end of the stand, you’ll find a 5/8″ thread that fits standard microphone mounts.
