Millenium DS-40

This stand is very robust and finished in quality materials. It has a nice balance with a low center of mass, which makes it very stable to hold heavier condenser microphones. The legs are very thick and all connections seem sturdy and I think it can withstand all sorts of use & abuse.
My intention was to use it a table mic stand for podcasting with a condenser mic and also to mic a guitar amp with a dynamic mic. The stand is, unfortunately too high for the second application. Even at the lowest height, the mic is already above the speaker's cone of my Harley Benton G112 Vintage guitar cabinet. So make sure to measure the distance between floor and your speaker cone before buying this (also consider that most dynamic mics will require additional space for the mic holder)

The ergonomics tick all the boxes
stability in use without the need for a heavy base or clamp
designed with thought for the SURFACE of a table or desk

It's got a small footprint and for the broadcast on the move situation has easy set up & fold down features that I wish I had known about years ago ..

Its solved this with it's fold down lock in place stand legs

& it's thumb release lock& drop through centre pole which they thoughtfully put a additional surface protecting ferrule on

when folded on itself NO sharp bits to poke out of your backpack or equipment bag
