Review on Optimized for SEO: Samson MB1 Mini Boom Stand by Mark Meyer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The only criticism I have of this stance is that the adjustment screw on the main boom (up and down direction) needs to be tightened fairly hard to keep it in place.

A quality stand for its price range. I use this stand as a bass drum mic stand for very frequent gigs and in a variety of indoor and outdoor settings so far with no issues. It has all the necessary adjustment points to place the mic anywhere on the bass, regardless of size. The only criticism I have of this stance is that the adjustment screw on the main boom (up and down directions) needs to be fairly tight to ensure it stays in place in the event of an accidental kick. I suspect this is because the tightness is achieved through friction rather than a series of gears you might see on knurled adjuster stays. This gives more accuracy in placement, but at the cost of more reliable positioning. It's not a big deal, but some elbow lubrication is needed for a good snug fit.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Minor problems
