• Best Round-Base Mic Stand

  
  As reviewed by Robert Farrell on 11/22/2009

  This is one massive, well made piece of hardware. I did a lot of research before buying, and I know several musicians still using their old Atlas stands after many years on the road. It's the final word on round-base stands, and it looks as good as it performs. I use it with the Atlas Sound PB21X chrome extendabe boom to mount my Heil Sound "The Fin" Microphone. This mic is quite heavy and I wouldn't trust it to just any bargain brand mic stand, as they are just too lightweight and wimpy for professional use. The MS20 has a super heavy 14" base and if you attach the PB21X with it's 2 lb. adjustable counter-weight, you will have a mic stand that will handle just about any situation.

• Best Mic Stand...PERIOD!!!

  
  As reviewed by Owen Bonaventura on 4/2/2011

  I have two of these. I've been pretty rough on them. There isn't a scratch, ding, dent, or blemish after a few years. They look like brand new. They stand up to everything.... from jerks, to falling off stages, to falling off vans and getting hit by cars. They are indestructible. Also I really like the air suspension feature. It helps so that when you have a really heavy mic on there, for instance the Blue Bottle or the Neumann U87, when you adjust the height, the mic doesn't come crashing down as soon as you loosen the clutch. The mic is supported by a hydraulic-like pocket of air that allows the mic to fall slowly and more carefully. Also, the 14" base (which weighs a ton) adds to the stability. The three piece clutch is outstanding!I have a hard time getting off sometimes because it grips so tight. Unlike my other $30 Sam Ash mic stands, the clutch and the entire stand is metal. The clutch on the cheaper mic stand broke when I even remotely touched it. Atlas stands are well worth the price and are BY FAR the best, best looking, most durable mic stands on the market. These stands(MS20) are definitely worth the price over the MS10 and MS12. These are the way to go.
