Ultimate Support AMP-150 Ultra Compact Amp Stand Reviews

Ultra Compact, 3-position Tilt Genesis Series Amp Stand with Locking Legs - Black

The Ultimate Support Genesis series AMP-150 is one of the most innovative amp stands you'll ever come across. In addition to all of the wonderful engineering Ultimate Support puts into all of their Genesis series stands, the AMP-150 completely eliminates the need for an additional mic stand, by offering you a built-in boom attachment right at its top. All you have to do is cradle your amp onto the grippy rubber of the AMP-150's arms, attach your favorite mic boom to the threads at the top, and point your mic back at your amp.

Buying a second one

Music Background: Professional musician/ artist/ songwriter since 1976.

I've settled on this one. Packs up small and light; never stops working. Buying a second one. High quality, low price.

Nice Little Stand

By Ollie E. from Rosemead, CA
Music Background: Working bass player (R&B, Reggae, Blues, Jazz)

Thus far I love this little amp stand. It holds my combs very nicely while reducing my footprint and weight load. Though I rarely use a mic on my bass amps, I do love the option to mount on the stand. Also it was surprising that the stand has the ability to adjust the angle, I just didn't catch that ability until I used it.

So Far So Good

By Michael M. from weston, CT

I've seen the reviews on here about the back leg failing, but so far so good.

If this only lasts a year, then at $ I'll take it.

I run house sound at a local bar venue, and one of my biggest problems is guitar amp volume, the classic "your calves don't have ears".

The first time I put a guitar player's amp on one these I staired in joy as I watched them turn it down them selves.

The small foot print is also a plus when the stage gets packed, place it in its furthest leaning back setting (back leg fully in) and you can get it pointed at an average height guitarist's head only a foot or two behind them.

I will definitely add a second one to my next order.

Not perfect

By Domingo H. from Ellenwood, GA
Music Background: 58 years of playing experience.

The small folding amp supports prevent the front legs from folding up(out of alignment). With this happening the rubber sleeves on the tips of the supports get stressed(split) when folded up for storage. The vertical pole needs some kind of cushioning pad to protect the back of the amp from getting scratched. I had to place an adhesive felt pad on the pole to protect the amp. Not sure if I want to keep using this thing since setting it up and putting it away is where the "wear" comes from.

Great at first

By Brandon B. from PORTLAND, OR

I thought these would be great. Good price. Compact. But then the back leg on the both the stands I bought gave out. There's nothing to stop them from collapsing. Avoid.

Sturdy compact stand!

By Todd M. from Ankeny, IA

A buddy of mine recommended this and I'm really glad he did. Points my Rumble 500 bass amp right at my head so I can hear it very well. Very well made and folds down very compact for easy transport. Great product at a reasonable price!

Nice Stand

By Sweetwater Customer from FL

Stand folds up nice and compact, has 3 different settings for the angle of the amp, has less footprint than other stands I have, should work out well.

Cool idea, poorly executed

By Rowan

I had two, both broke within a year. The locking mechanism is just not sturdy enough. My amps are 40lbs, which is well under the 75lbs they're rated for.
I'm disappointed, since I really loved how compact they were when folded, and how easy they were to set up and take down.

Works but has things you need to know

By Chuck G. from Havre De Grace, MD
Music Background: Making music since 1967

I knew going in by some of the reviews and my research on this product what the pros and cons were likely to be. Firstly, I do like the product. That said, what I found was pretty much as expected. This is a small stand for a small amp. Its main competition is Fenders small amp stand. I have both, neither of which are great. They cost the same. This one does not get your amp much off the floor but does allow you to angle it properly in most cases. The Fenders basically what you get is it but higher off the floor and its angle is equal to the AMP-150 when it's all the way back {which is where I use it}. As far as weight goes, I personally would not go over 40 lbs on either even though the Amp-150 is rated 75 lbs and the Fenders rated 100 lbs. Both will do well at home or in the studio. Neither will hold up to continued road use imho but the Amp-150 is hands down much more compact, space-saving and easier to transport. Also measure to make sure you know your amp feet won't line up precariously on the bottom supports or the back of your amps connections don't interfere with any stands back support[s]. Use your Sweetwater Rep if in doubt. They will make sure that you get the best product for your particular need.

Worked great - while it lasted.

By Sweetwater Customer

Very compact amp stand. I could fit it in my pedal board case along with a guitar stand. Love that you can adjust the angle too. But it only lasted maybe 4 years? Part of the plastic broke so one of the legs won't take any weight at all. Never used this with anything heavier than possibly 50 lbs. Usually no more than 40. Of course I didn't save my receipt, so the lifetime warranty isn't covered. Might get another one, but checking out other options too. Like I said - it was nice while it lasted!

Breaks Easily

By Jerry M. from Anaheim CA
Music Background: Songwriter, Producer, Performer

I have some nice Ultimate Support stands that I have bought in the past, and they have been good quality pieces of gear that I have relied on.

The problem with these stands is that the body (that holds the arms and legs) is extremely weak and breaks easily. I had 2 of these in my studio holding small combo amps (Bassbreaker 15 and Blackstar Studio 10), and they both broke in about a year of doing nothing but holding little amps.

I generally don't write negative reviews because most gear made these days is quite good. However, I have no respect for cheap junk and would probably not buy Ultimate Support products in the future, as their quality has really gone downhill.

Small Footprint Works Great

By Guitar P. from Florida
Music Background: Pro Gigging guitar picker for over 45 years

I have owned multiple amp stands going back 30 years. This one is a small footprint on stage and holds any of my amps. The kickback is adjustable so you can get you perfect sound. I will order more of these

Handy, portable, but needs improvement

By David A. from MO
Music Background: Lifelong player ( over 50)

1.) Collapse and carry design is outstanding. Love that feature!
2.) On mine the locking mechanism for the mic extension tube broke, the plastic around the rivet gave out. Manufacturer design problem, too weak.
3.) I used to put a pretty heavy amp on the stand, probably about 60 lbs. It was very tipsy trying to set the amp in place, balancing as you set it down was important or it would flip to the side, but once the amp was in place it was quite stable.

I would not buy another unless Ultimate fixes the weak rivet, because the extension tube is not only useful to mount a mic but important to properly support taller amps.

Perfect

By Treetop S. from Redding, CA

It holds my Deluxe Reverb. Perfect angle for having the speaker face me as I play in my home. This tilt allows me to keep the volume a little bit lower than it would otherwise have to be.

Fantastic!

By Brian D. from IN

This stand folds up very nicely for transport. I really like the way it positions perfectly so I can hear my amp/tone without having to crank the amp and overload our stage volume.

Works Great

By Frank R. from NW Chicago Suburbs

I have two of these stands. They're sturdy and hold the amplifiers at the perfect angle for playing while seated in an orchestra pit. The legs lock securely both when holding an amplifier and when folded. The stands fold compactly and easily fit within my gig bag unlike other amp stands I have used. I did have to re-secure (glue) the rubber feet in place as they are just pressed onto the legs. Otherwise, highly recommended. It goes without saying (but, I'll say it anyway) that Sweetwater service is second to none.

Enables You to Play at Lower Volume

By Dave S. from Richmond, Indiana
Music Background: Played in a band for 21 years. have played solo the last 13 years

I use an Ultimate Support Amp-150 Amp Stand for my Fender Mustang 3V amp, and I am very pleased with it.

I play solo as a guitarist/vocalist.

By getting the amp off of the floor and angling it I can play at a lower volume level and still cover the room I am playing in.

It folds up into a very compact package for carrying.

I would highly recommend it.

Solid

By Sweetwater Customer

Works great. I bought two for a Fender Blues Jr. and a Marshall Class5 set up in my living room. They function well and the setup looks classy enough to be left out all the time. Didn't think I'd use the mic stand part, but attached the boom of a mic stand I had lying around and it works really well. My only wish was that I could adjust the angle a little shallower (i.e. that the rear leg would extend a littler longer) but it's pretty minor.

Sturdy and Practical

By River from Colorado, USA

Solid as a rock and, with the addition of a small boom, perfect for micing my 75-lb. Pro Reverb.

Not a good value -- broke after light use within two years

By BJF from Seattle
Music Background: Pro Musician/ Artist

Good concept- poor quality components in the "stress points"
My amp is a Rivera 55-12 -- weighs 47lbs.
