I travel a lot as a professional event technicians go. The microphone stand is once struck me with a belt. I was frankly surprised at the good quality and had then added myself several of these stands. I am therefore fully satisfied. All that matters, right here easily (cast base, T-screw ...). While it noted in the processing accuracy even slight differences among the top brand manufacturers, but it is in this context fully OK. Finally fulfilled the stand reliably with good handling his job. I write the review specially since I stumbled on the bad review other. I assume that here truly a Monday product was caught. I now but some of these stand in operation and there are no problems with me.
