Review on 🎀 On-Stage DS7200C Adjustable Desktop Microphone Stand in Chrome - Enhance Your Sound Setup! by Todd Gill

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An excellent self-defense weapon that can be used as a handy microphone stand.

I got this mic as a Christmas present because I just started with audio books and needed a mic stand. What is it and why do I need it?: This is a desktop mic stand with great build quality that allows you to hold the mic while recording. You may need this if you're speaking at your desk or just dictating with Dragon Naturally Speaking, Google Docs, or another speech recognition program. It would also be helpful for Skype calls or any other form of communication through your computer. First Impression: The funny thing is that when it was wrapped in wood I didn't know what it was. I was a little confused by the density or weight of such a small package. This is good because it just shows the durability and longevity of the stand. Assembly: Assembly is easy. Take the rod, insert it into the hole and twist to tighten. You can adjust the height from about 8.5 inches to about 13 inches as you can see from the comma in the pictures. The base is quite heavy but doesn't seem to get too heavy at this height range. Feature: If you have a standard microphone, this table is definitely for you. It works great with the Shure SM 58 and it was able to hold my blue Yeti, no it was a bit heavy as the Yeti is a heck of a big mic. When it comes to standard microphones, you can't go wrong. What you get with this order: When you open the box you have two pieces that fit together for the mic stand itself. And instructions so I'm not sure if they're needed. What you don't get: No clip for standard microphone. Considering that professional mini microphones can be screwed directly onto the tripod shaft, that's not a big deal. However, if you have a standard handheld microphone, you will need a clip for it. Appearance: matte black, no frills. I like that the base has a rougher surface that prevents fingerprints and you hardly notice this dust. Build: The thing is solid. We say "if someone breaks into your house at night and you're sitting at your desk and there the first thing you would take away with you... you could easily end the action 'solid' in a library with a mic stand. Any cons?: I can't fault the stand for not holding my blue yeti, especially when I add a shock to it. I didn't start because of that as the stand is compact and does exactly what it's supposed to. Conclusion: You get a great compact microphone stand. And one that can easily be used as a self-defense weapon in an emergency.

Sturdy stand but needs extra weight if you want to mount a Yeti
