Konig & Meyer Table stand for microphones - 232

Nice heavy base giving great stability even with heavy mics like the SM7b. It is heavy and solid enough to feel safe using it as a desk stand for an expensive SLR camera.Good range of height adjustment when used as a desk stand, also has good isolation from desk vibrations.Well constructed and priced.My only criticism is the absence of a locking nut for the pole which can lead to partially unscrewing the pole when locking and unlocking the height adjustment. Making sure the pole is well screwed in helps, but I am thinking about buying a locking nut.

Well made. Heavy cast metal base with a nice rubber foot. Post screws in - this is my only slight gripe as there isn’t really a way of locking it solid but in use this hasn’t been an issue because once you set the height that’s it. I could always use some thread lock if it became an issue. The height adjustment is via twisting what feels like a cheap plastic wheelbarrow grip but is actually decently sturdy. I use it with my Rode NT-1A with cradle and pop shield and it’s perfect. Highly recommended if you want to get away from the annoying springy microphone arms.

Note this review covers the "347 mm" version of the product .Only just received the product, but I am really impressed by the robustness of this microphone stand. The base is HUGE, a good 17.5 cm in diameter. The base is quite heavy and has a really nice grip due to a rubber ring that encircles it around the bottom. I have not explored adjusting the height of the extendable pole because, at its lowest position, my microphone (Samson C03U in a Samson shock mount), mounted horizontally, sits at around 28 cm above my desk--likely exactly where I want it (any upward adjustment will be minor and easily accommodated).

I used it mainly with the Lewitt LCT 240 Pro and it works well.I did try with the Rode NTK but it leans forward a little more than I was comfortable with so best to stay with small to mid sized microphones.

When the current Covid problem started our family kept in touch using Zoom, as my computing equipment was not really up to the audio side of things I had to use any studio equipment available at the time, the most relevant being a 6 ft counterbalanced boom microphone stand to suspend a stereo microphone array just out of range of the camera.The desktop microphone stand now means I can simply sit at my desk with a microphone clipped in front of me. Far less hassle. It seems to handle everything I have hung on it with no problems. Not sure yet what to do with it in the future as it looks strong enough to last forever, but I'm sure I will think of something!

Bought 3 of these K&M stands to use for podcasting. Wanted something that was study and would support Shure SM7B and Rode Podmic mics. Really impressed with the quality, sturdy construction and overall weight. They come with a nice rubberised base and feel more than up to the job. They've also got just the right height for desktop mic stands.

Clearly no standards at logistics - staff don't care. Fortuantely the stand is good German engineering so a bit of dust won't harm it. If it was something other than a couple of lumps of steel it would have been damaged

Size Name: 175 mmDiameter of base is 5 inches (13 cm). Height about 7 inches.Firm but soft rubber beneath base is very good. Cast iron base is well weighted for stability.Edit: after a few months use I'm still happy with this. However, sometimes I've needed to add an extra weight of my own to the base (just threaded it over the centre column) for stability. With lightweight mics it's fine as is without this extra weight.
