SAMSONSAMD5 Desktop Microphone Stand

I don't usually read reviews that start with "I just received this and it's really good" because I like to hear about the experience of someone with knowledge of the product who has tested it over a long period. But this is a really simple and solid piece of equipment, so there is nothing to go wrong with prolonged use. I was delighted with my Rode USB microphone's performance, but disappointed with the flimsy plastic tripod stand that kept tipping over -- and i only got that yesterday. By contrast, this stand is heavy, it doesn't move, and the heavy microphone stays put. The stand has a soft ring underneath that protects my desk without having to put a cloth underneath, and, just as important, the ring grips the desk so that the base of the stand does not slide. I am grabbing the stand now and trying to move it sideways. It doesn't budge at all. I have to lift it. Don't be put off by the low price: this is a really good stand that feels like it will last a lifetime. If it didn't, it wouldn't break the bank to replace it, but I don't expect to have to do that. This is a totally unsolicited review; I am not getting any reward of any kind. I am grateful for a product that does what it says on the box and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

For £11 this really is a bargain as its exceedingly heavy, very well constructed and a simple "buy once and use forever" type of device. I purchased it in order to use in conjunction with the rather spiffing and pocket money priced Neewer Cardioid Condenser Mic (£19 on Amazon, ASIN B017SJU2DK - Check out my review) and it works perfectly.At around 6 inches wide and the same high its the perfect size for desktop use and weighing in at 1.5kilos means it won't be sliding anywhere and will keep your microphone right were you want it to be.Its really wide compared to my microphone and as such it ensures that the shock mount holds the mic in securely and is fixed very well which is great for peace of mind as some of the other stands I'd looked at appeared quite a bit thinner/flimsier and were, bizarrely, more money than this.Overall a great quality product at a bargain price so if you're looking for a mic stand then scoop this one up.If you found my words handy please show some love and click YES below and I'd be happy to answer any questions.

The first thing you notice about this stand is it’s weight. It’s a heavy item that won’t move about and will ensure that whatever you screw to the microphone stand will stay in place. Despite this the box is well designed so it’s easy to disassemble and carry around with you if required. It’s easy to screw the two parts together and the microphone attachment is a quality fitting that will maintain its angle. It’s good value for money and good quality.

It's a good desktop mic stand. The stand is quite heavy, but not too heavy that you cannot carry it around. It has a nice cushioned stand to firmly place it on a table, desk or whatever you place it on. It supported my microphone well and the default stand my microphone came with was pretty bad, this was pretty firm and good to use. The only thing I could really say was a bit annoying was the stand not being adjustable. The packaging was great and minimal, as well. Good product.

After faffing around with gooseneck and tripod stands, I went for the simplest option and this 2-piece stand turned out to be the ideal solution. A heavy MV7 mic needs a stable base and this SAMD5 is really solid - no wobble at all - yet isn't so big it gets in the way. The neck screws in and is the perfect height for the mic at a slight tilt (about 30-45 degrees off vertical) to sit at chin level, directed at mouth. Didn't need any adapter bolts. Delighted with it. Should last years.

I bought this as a replacement for my boom stand, as my blue snowball did not fit the screw connector.Delivery was quick, and the packaging was sturdy enough that no damage was received in transit.My snowball fits perfectly onto the stand, as does the ringer shock mount I use with it. The base is sturdy and very weighty, meaning I can even tilt the microphone to the horizontal without even a hint of wobble or give.The base diameter is larger than I expected, so anyone with limited desk/table space should be prepared for this.Anyone hoping to use a small screw microphone with this stand should maybe look into getting a screw adapter of some kind, otherwise no other faults at all.Overall - excellent price, excellent service, excellent product.

An absolute steal for the price. These are heavy rubber based cast iron mic bases which one can easily use on a table for mics or lights. I have a MEVO Camera fixed to one of the units and it's rock solid, unobtrusive and quality made. When live streaming events it's always important to travel light - these mic stands are just the job. No mic will tilt this thing over such is its low centre of gravity displaced over the cast iron disk. I can thoroughly recommend these as LED light stands to fit on your desk if you ever need lighting for Skype​ or you just want to have a nicer light unit when working at night.

I'm not sure what I expected from this product, but it is basically a weight with a threaded bar for £15. The good point is that it appears to hold my Rode NT1 (with shock mount and pop shield), which is great, but it's pretty basic and cheaply made.The reason for the 3 stars was due to the internal threaded part of the weight and the external parts of the bar, which are very poorly finished and needed repeated lining up when putting it together and mounting my microphone. Basically the threads are badly aligned as well as the metal being sharp and soft (easily damaged). I'm not sure I believe the authenticity of other reviews or I just got a poorly made one!
