Absolutely amazed by the personal service on our order! It is obvious customer satisfaction is a priority. Your company would be the first place we would look for music related items. Great prices, great service and BTW, even the little touch of adding some candy made my kids very pleased! Thank you!

Just Like I Remembered

I spent 30+ years as a broadcaster and this item was a staple around radio stations. I was looking for one to attach to a butcher block table I use as a high desk, without doing damage to the table.

Amazing!

Solves tons of problems for me. I do VO recordings almost daily now. My old desk stand was making black marks on my desk, was a PITA to keep moving around, taking apart, putting back together, etc. ... read more [+] This solved all of that. Took all of 10 minutes to install, another 5 to rig and I was ready to rock! It's solid, very strong, sturdy, steady, super well built. Who knew such an odd piece of hardware would be so awesome! AND because I have more freedom to position it exactly where I need it, my voice work is coming out even BETTER (proximity effect). The clamp it comes with is nice, but my desk had no ledge, so I got the flange made for this, that bolts to the top of my desk. Very solid, strong, durable, I'm super impressed. Wish I'd bought it a year ago! close [-]

Actually Improved My Sound!

I do TONS of VO work as well as video editing and effects. I used to have a desktop mic stand, but I had to keep moving it around, it was awkward, etc. I got the 23850 and am blown away on several f... read more [+]ronts. First, I am noticing I'm getting better bass and clarity out of my mic now. I'm old school and strongly believe in using Proximity Effect during recording than EQ in post. PE is very much improved because I can position the mic much better, with more flexibility and freedom, than with my old mic stand, which now feels like some piece of caveman hardware made out of rocks, twigs and vines. I'm using the same techniques, settings, etc, and comparing these recordings to my old ones from my desktop mic stand. Three friends doing blind side-by-side tests agree with me, the new recordings sound much more noticeably crisper with more low end. And it's just easier to deal with. Grab and pull it in place to record, push it away when I'm done. It is super sturdy, too. I have a Sennheiser e835 on it with a dual screen pop filter, and it acts like there's no weight at all. Improved sound, improved convenience, I love this! Thanks to Jason Koons for recommending this to me. Best money I've spent on my studio all year. close [-]

The thing to get

love this thing. Seems a little expensive at first but it looks great, works great, feels solid, and even comes with a well-integrated mic cable.

Sweetwater Advice

Ron Daniel
I've got one of these stands mounted to the desk in my studio. It's perfect for voiceover work - I slap on the cans, pull the mic over to me, cut the track, and push it out of the way. It's constructed well, holds its position, and does what I need it to do. No regrets.
