Millenium Amp Clamp

a grate peace of cit for anyone doing live sound i have two of these now . grate for geting a nice tidy stage its out of the way it avoids your mic positions being moved by artiest kicking over your mic stands these clamps have a nice handy cable clip on them so you can beep your cables tidy as well. the goos neck is grate on smaller lighter mic's you can move it feely and it stays in position if you start to use heavier mics tho it dose tend to droop a bit but its not to bad iff you put the clamp up hieer than where you what your mic to go. these clamps are a grate perchance and im very happy with them word of worming tho iff you need them to mic up an orange 4x12 cabb this clamp wont fit its a bit of a stretch to fit on most cabs of that size for combos its grate ones for an experiment i did use it to clamp a mic to a rack tom witch worked pretty well looks horrible but it worked! so yeah i would recommend this clamp to a friend

Idea behind this compact mic holder is great, but there is still some room for improvement.

First of all, this clamp might have problem with attaching to some straight boxes, due to it's limited stretch option (We tried and failed on Orange 2x12 reprobox). On the other hand, you are still able to use it even if it doesn't fit your cab, there is always a way.

Second problem I discovered is the weight of the microphone for adjustable part of the clamp. It's quite hard to keep it at the sweet spot, since the weight of the mic dragging the clamp down to certain position. It'd be nice if the adjustable part was more solid.

Anyway, even with it's flaws it's still very good and handy product

This is a more affordable alternative to the Audix Cab Grabber mic clamp. It works by gripping the front and rear edges of a speaker cabinet with a spring-loaded clamp which is easy to install and remove. The contact points have rubber pads which provide friction which stops it slipping from the position you set the clamp in. Pros of this system are that you obviously don't need to use a separate mic stand, taking up floorspace, and with the mic attached to the cab, it doesn't matter if you move it, because the mic will follow. Cons are that the gooseneck can be difficult to keep in the position you set it in but once it stays, it holds its position well.

The product arrived really quickly - always welcome! - and was well packaged.

My main use for this was to have a mic permanently set up on my amp for quick and easy recording purposes meaning that it would be a set and forget and therefore had to be stable.

Attaching it to the amp is easy (the springs are reassuringly strong) and the mic thread is standard so pretty much anything should attach.

I had some initial problems with it sagging - however if the clamp is place over the top of the cab (rather than on the side) it resists gravity better. I've tried it with a few mics (SM57, Heil PR30, CAD Trion 7000) and it supports those fine. It would not work with large heavy condensers such as the sE z5600aII or a U87 so consider that if you are planning to use such mics.

It has supported the PR-30 for a couple of months now without sagging so am confident in its longevity.

All in all it has done what I hoped it would and saves me having mic stands taking up floor space.

Recommended.

I bought this to mic up a cabinet in a tight space where having a microphone stand permanently set up was going to be an issue. Not only is this product good for space saving reasons but it also offers a more streamlined look for any studio and also encourages for a quicker set up time as mic's can already be placed on the sweet spots of in house cabs/amps etc.

The main drawback for me is the fact that no instructions were included on how to operate the stand or any mention that a screw driver is needed for any adjustments! Other than that however this is a stable way of mounting a microphone out of the way and also offers for easier positioning with the gooseneck rather than having to move a stand or boom arm around.
