Gravity MS 4322 B Microphone Stand

After several years of not having ANY mic stands, I went with the Gravity MS 4322 B.
In short- the best mic stand I've ever had/used.

More about Pros:
-The durability of this stand is felt from the get-go. You can clearly feel that the boom is sitting (STEADY) with every microphone/s arrangement you'll put on it. I also tried several attachments for several microphones and it seems to fit universally easy.

-Easy to fold, which I find useful at the end of the recording sessions, or putting aside if you're short in place for equipment in you're recording space/home studio.

-Adjustments to the stand are easy, and offer a fine lock/release mechanisms that I really dig along with the general design.

The "Cons", or actually just an objective one because it didn't bother me:
-The weight of this stand might be a bit too heavy for carrying on stage or especially field-recording like I do, but as its original purpose- it should stand. And for that I cannot complain.

I already have two of the smaller Gravity kick drum mic stands so I knew what to expect from this one (of three). The rubber wheels for tightening the base joint and the main boom arm joint are comfortably and tighten smoothly and with a little give. The flippy-clippy clamp for the boom arm extension is also useful for speed adjustments. The height adjusting clamp seems solid (unlike the ones on some Millenium stands I bought a while back). It's a heavy stand but exudes quality. I'm not entirely sure about the fluorescent rubber rings on the legs and boom arm (for identification) when I would prefer a less conspicuous mic stand, but I suppose I can just remove the rubber rings!

Honestly, after being surrounded by K&M stands (and K&M wannabes) on the road and just about anywhere a musician can be, it's refreshing to get a gravity stand everyone once and a while. I much prefer the aesthetics of Gravity equipment, and this stand delivers on quality as well.

I've used this stand in studio and on the road and I find it superior to most stands that I've come across. I like the glide of the fastening knobs and the range of motion of the boom arm. Overall it's just a solid, sturdy workhorse of a stand.

Pros:
- Aesthetically pleasing and unique
- Feels and looks like high quality material for the price
- Range of motion

Cons:
- Minimum height doesn't always work in my environments
- The clip fastener for the boom arm extension feels a bit loose
- Base legs could be longer for a touch more stability

Summary: Great stand/Great price. 10/10 would buy again.
