Samson MB1 Mini Boom Stand, (SAMB1)

Good product

This mic stand has been the favorite option for my band. A solid, small and stable stand that doesn’t shake, perfect for Indian music and can be extended considerably to a perfect high for playing guitar on singing on chair too. It’s well finished and the coating paint protects it from corrosion and makes it unnoticeable on stage. A really good quality option that will last many years.

Product is heavy but if you have more than 1 kg mike it not study slightly, the bottom rod is very strong all over quality is very good and amazing, look is impressive, design is 100% superb, if you need table mike stand it will be perfect choice because the hight is i think 1.5 feet only and finally money is High due to the high quality 😍

It's a nice item . All is good except the price would have been little less.

Heavy, good quality base means it will not tip; however, height is child-sized, which means you'll need to be sitting down rather close to it to be at the right height when you use it.

It's a very very good product. Enough heavy to firmly hold a large diaphragm condenser mic with shock mount and pop filter and even with a reflection filter. It's very smooth, well built and has a great finishing. Looks like a much pricey product than it does cost. I feel my condenser mics are very safe when connected to it. I highly recommend everyone to go for this product who needs a small size microphone stand. And, can't restrict myself without mentioning Samson BL3 for a great large size microphone stand.

this is just the best height to record a 1x12 guitar cabinet. The quality of the plastic parts could be even better, but it works really well. Has a cast iron base that is heavy enough to resist vibration

Very sturdy and easy to use with its telescopic channel. I already have a couple of other designs and this stands out. A great product. Loved it.

Heavy narrow base and long reach make this an excellent stand for a snare drum. Clamp a small goose neck on the shaft and you can add an under-snare mic also. Much cheaper than LP Claw options. (See picture)

Incredibly solid for the price. The bottom base is a heavy die cast piece that will last for centuries. The box it came in is way to big for the dimensions of the product, in my opinion, the manufacturer could cut down shipping costs with a smaller box. Anyway, excellent quality. Thick metal were is most important, and good quality plastic for the rest. I don't usually write reviews, but Samson made a great job with this product.

First things first, I have absolutely zero experience with this type of gear. My background is photography (cameras, lenses, meters, radio control devices, tripods, studio flash gear, et cetera), construction and pest control. My experience is what tells me this is a well made piece of gear that I wouldn't hesitate to take to a construction site or a photo shoot. I'll be using the stand to hold an omnimic to do room analyzing measurements with. http://www.amazon.com/Dayton-Audio-Electret-Measurement-Microphone/dp/B002KI8X40/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1354286429&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=Daton+EMM-6 If you need to add more weight then the stand is designed to hold, then add more counter weight or get a heavier table stand. There's no excuse for overloading one's gear. I worked thirty years in the construction trades and I'm use to putting gear through it's paces to tear broken things out that are made of big timbers, pipe and steel, and put them back together again with power saws/drills and big heavy hammers; Milwaukee, Skill, Ridgid and Stanley tools. The point, I know how to use gear to it's max and after many years of use, not break them. The point, if anybody tells you this is a fragile piece of gear, it's because they're abusing the gear beyond what it was designed to do; at a reasonable price, hold a microphone in a static position and then be moved again. When using this stand, if the mic is falling over, it's because it's being over extended, over weighted, poorly cabled, not leveled or the legs of the stand are improperly positions; one leg should face away from the weight load in the direction of the tilt. The mic stand is not falling over because it's not stable, the base is too light or it's poorly designed. If parts are breaking it's because the parts are being overtightened beyond what they were designed for. A little bit of common sense regarding not abusing your tools goes a long way in extending their usefulness. People who break their tools and then blame the tools, tick me off. And yes, we all have experienced products that broke the moment we plugged them in for normal use. That's what a warranty is for. I don't care what the other reviewers have to say about this mic stand. It's a beautiful piece of gear, that's well designed and will give it's owner many years of service. Eventually, one day, years down the road, the parts will get old, brittle and break but don't we all. Based on personal experience with lots of tools, used under extreme conditions (heat, cold, dark, rain and under houses), I expect this piece of gear to last many years of regular use and then if it breaks, without complaint I'll say; I got many years of use out of it as I only paid $27.00 for the stand and that included delivery. The point, for a well constructed mic stand, this is a great price. You'll be hard pressed to find a better product at any price and yes, I've looked. I do have one niggle and that's the hand-twist action at the center of the stand to tighten the center clamp of the main support. It's a bit flaky as to tightening but with patience, it locks things down just fine. This niggle is not a reason to take this item off a list of possible choices or an excuse to knock a star off a possible five star rating. If one is expecting a table top mic stand they can throw around the stage in anger to impress everybody (Oooo, he's scary) with their lack of personal self-control, get an all metal stand who's clamps are made of steel or get a different profession where, due to their lack of self-control, won't be able to break things. If one is going show self-control and respect their gear, expectedly, this mic stand will last many years and like most well used items, eventually die a gentle, quiet, well deserved death. I love this stand because it's well made, is good looking, has lots of well placed adjustments to make it very functional and delivered, is well priced. Hope the above review helps.

This is an awesome desktop Mic Stand. High quality construction, including connections. and heavy cast base makes for a mic that will not move when mounted. Highly recommended.

さすが音響機器メーカー製だなと感心しました PC周りのマイクに使用とバスドラ用にと購入です 中心軸とブームにも歪みがなく、作りしっかりとしています。 土台となるウェイトも、結構な重量があるので安心。 これは私の使い方の問題ですが、デスクに置いてコンデンサーマイク、ショックマウントを付けてブームをほぼいっぱいに伸ばして角度もほぼ90度にした場合、さすがにウェイトが負けました 通常であればこんな使い方はなかなかしないので個人の使い方の問題です 通常の使い方であればなんら問題ないウェイトの重量です。 むしろ重いくらいです ブームのクランプ部分も重みで下がるなどはありません 物の質を考えるとかのりのコスパです 個人的には垂直の軸がもう少し短い方が使い勝手良かったような気がします あと、買う前は気づかなかったのですが、ブームは2段階式になっていて、狭い場所での設置に非常にいいです これはおすすめ出来ますね
