5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the cost!, October 30, 2010

This review is from: Hercules MS401B Tripod TILT Microphone Stand (Electronics)

I was previously under the impression that all mic stands were created equal. As a result I went through several 15-25 dollar stands without giving it much thought; always being fairly disappointed when one would begin to wobble or strip out in all the wrong places. However, I eventually came across the Hercules Transformer Tilt Base Mic Stand and I can confidently say that I will never go back to the dime-a-dozen variety if I can avoid it. For the amount of money I spent on cheap stands I probably could have purchased several of these beauties. But one is enough for any particular job. I have been using the same stand for well over a year now, even though it also splits time as the work horse for a children's school of music, and it still functions flawlessly.

Before I go any further I believe that it should be taken into consideration that this review is coming from the perspective of a lead singer, and I utilize it as could be expected. That being said, beyond its extremely sturdy construction, the Hercules Transformer has been a true pleasure, primarily due to its Quik-N-EZ Height Adjustment Grip. With one hand, and truly with ease, the height of the stand can be adjusted on the fly like no other stand I have ever used. I also enjoy the tilt feature when I feel the need to get a little theatrical and give my mic a quick dip. While I have never actually utilized any configuration outside of the typical equidistant tripod legs, I do like the fact that the stand could be configured to lean in over my guitar if I desired to play while seated.

All in all, considering how poorly so many mic stands are constructed, the Hercules is worth every penny, and it will almost certainly pay off in dividends over the life of the stand. I would certainly recommend this product for anyone who is in the market for a microphone stand!

I bought this because I use my iPad during performances and wanted something sturdy to mount it on. I didnt trust the microphone stands with small basses and I SPECIFICALLY didn't want a tripon stand because I didn't think they were reliable. This one SHATTERED that idea. I take this with me everywhere... as sturdy as it is, it's still easily portable. I pack it in a shoulder bag with my banner stand with no strain or back pain. It takes seconds to unpack and unfold for stage use. the TILT and EZ height adjustment are both addictively convenient. There is NO WAY I'll buy any other stand unless they stop making these. It's the only one I trust to mount my iPad on!!

I just got this mic stand and it is built perfect! It doesn't take up a lot of space in my studio set up and is easy to adjust for whatever your needs. It's as sturdy as stands get. It even made me switch my highly prized condenser mic to it because it is so solid. I love my other stand too, but you just have to do a little more adjusting to get a solid counterbalance for the mic's weight! This one has a base design that is so solid that it doesn't matter what position the stand is tilted. It will still hold your mic solid as a rock. Very good buy! Thanks again Amazon!
