A singer without an instrument or a presenter who isn't standing behind a lectern doesn't really need to use a boom mic stand. A straight or solo mic stand is a much better choice. This type of stand is simple, and can be placed very close to the performer. What's more, its round base takes up very little space on stage. On the other hand, a tripod stand with three adjustable legs offers more stability. For extra tall stands, have a look at our assortment of overhead microphone stands. If you want to expand on your current mic stand with an arm, you'll find a selection in the microphone stand accessories category. Always ensure that the sizes of your mic holders and clips are compatible.
