OnStageMSA9508 Posi-Lok Sidemount Microphone Boom

Finally all music enthusiasts and performers who give performances sitting cross-legged should heave a sigh of relief - You now have the perfect sidemount boom stand! I noticed a situation where I had to have this boom attached to my microphone main stand which was a "PylePro PMKS40 Universal Microphone Stand with Height Adjustable" which I had purchased earlier. The main microphone stand was also a good, robust and resilient piece but it couldn't be adjusted in height to suit the singer's mouth level since both the singer and accompanists in this case sit cross-legged. Not just that - the 300 degrees rotational adjustability of this boom stand is unrivalled and helps you fine tune the level of the microphone to the optimal level for the best throughput. I don't know what I would have done without this boom stand! I would recommend this boom stand over the traditionally available stands with lever-adjusted sidemounts, also due to one more advantage - this one will also not dent or flake the paint on your main microphone stand although it is mounted at various different positions on the main stand.

I have been using mine for a while now. I have used it attached to a microphone stand as well as attached to the side of my desk. It works well both ways and holds my Shure SM58 just fine. This piece of hardware is great if you don't want a huge boom taking up space.

i can position an sm57 exactly where it needs to be for my guitar amp. if it's a little off for your needs, a small gooseneck extender would put it where you need it to go. It is not going to clamp onto the small lip on the front of my actual amp, but i wouldn't do that anyway. works great for me. very sturdy, and tightens down very securely.

These extensions work reasonably well to hold instrument mics on a mic stand that primarily holds a vocal mic. They are well made, but the attachment can be a little loose unless you really crank the knob, and even then... I would not want to put a heavy mic on this extension. But it works nicely for an sm57 or a small diagphram condenser mic.It might be more convenient if the 5/8" threads for the mic mount were positioned vertically with an adjustable threaded knob, rather than horizontally with fixed threads. But it works fine as is and the price is right.

Perfect for adding a second microphone or other piece of equipment to a mic stand!!

Not much to say about this simple clamp, it works as designed and for me at least it's very useful. I use it to hold a guitar microphone, but I've also had my iPad mount on it, and it was strong enough for that.On Stage gear is well-made and attractive with a good paint job. The large knob is easy to tighten. The Posi-Lock consists of detents in the mechanism under the knob, so it can't slip once tightened, a good design.

Space is at a premium, and I have no need to constantly move the mic around, so this is perfect. It holds my very heavy microphone in place solidly, and if I do need to adjust it, it's not difficult at all. I was concerned it might not be long enough and I'd have to get an extension. Turns out, by the time I add in the shockmount, it's perfect. I'd have had to spend 10-15x more for a boom arm sturdy enough to hold my heavy microphone, and it would have taken up a lot more space. This is an excellent tool, certainly for most home recording setups.

Ive had good success with this piece. I use it with a straight mic stand topped with a Shure Super 55 for vocals. I put a Heil Fin on the boom arm to mic my tenor sax. The arm allows for a variety of positions, and serves to eliminate a second stand just for the horn mic. My only (small) "concern" is the length of the arm itself. If it was a bit shorter, or adjustable, it would help offset the (potential) balance issue created from having a mic hang that far off the stand. In my case, I am using a heavy microphone, so I didn't rate down the product for this reason (as I know Im pushing the issue). I doubt that if someone was attaching a lighter microphone to the arm, it would be a issue. That said, it's a great way to get rid of a second unnecessary stand cluttering up your stage. We ended up buying a total 4 for our stage and freed up a ton of floor space. A highly recommended piece.
