Konig & Meyer 26010 microphone stand without boom arm light silver
K&M are the best for a reason.
The main issue touring mic stands can be repeatedly unscrewing the base from the main arm to pack/set up. Many other stands I've used over the years have had thread that has won down or simply been too thin and broke. The thread on this is nice thick and sturdy holding the base in place very securely.
Some other iron cast bases can be extremely heavy. This slim version, looks slicks, has enough weight to it to steady the stand but not too much to make you complain lugging it into the van. You can throw this stand around during a performance without any worries or caution.
The height adjuster again seems strong and reliable. I've had too many cases of them snapping etc in the past.
IMPORTANT NOTE
If you're taller than 6ft1/2 I would recommend another stand. I am 6ft and have it on its maximum height. Unless you don't mind the mic pointing up slightly towards you, then there is no issue.
Overall I would highly recommend spending the extra £10/£15 over budget or lesser brand mic stands for this. It's a sold and reliable stand that will definitely STAND* the test of time! Plus the chrome looks great!
