I want to buy mic stands for recording drums, Voice, etc. I have been checking Proel and Quik Lok stands but they are weak, I have some Proel but I want to buy better ones.
I like K&M stands with tri-leg bases. I've put together some bigger stands with GS bases (some german company) and K&M boom arms with the counter weight. Lots of studios here in Nashvile use Atlas stands but I've never liked them. That big heavy bottom gives a false sense of security. Of course the king of all mic stands is the Starbird (now built my Manley) They're like $1000 each !!! They've got about 30 of them over at Ocean Way. Perfect for orchestra or choir dates. Good luck.

A few months ago, I saw a portable stand that that had a 2" diameter (like a speaker stand) and telescoped up to at least 15 feet. The thing was matte silver, aluminum and looked rugged as hell. Anybody have an idea who makes something like this?
