I was a bit hesitant about this mic boom arm when I find it, because it hadn’t any comments yet. But it looked very nice and has good price. The prices of similar boom arms with a lot of comments are almost 2-3 times now expensive than it.
The boom arm holds its position extremely well. I am using a fairly heavy Blue Yeti microphone with shock mount and pop filter (about 2,5lbs total) and it doesn’t drop even a little over the course of hours recording.
I couldn’t be happier about it.
Sleek, easy to use and I have had no problems. If you read the little booklet that comes with it, tells typo there is a tension screw at the base of the arm that you can adjust to tighten the tension or loosen the tension of the spring. Heavier mics might need a good twist to the right of that tension screw, this will stop the arm from failing or springing back up after you have already tightened the hinges.
I am very happy for that purchase. I would definitely recommend this product to those who are looking for a cheap and stylish mic arm.
