 The Best Desktop Mic StandJul 28, 2010
By John Zimmerman
I sing live over the internet, and use a microphone on a stand. Most mic stands have a heavy, round base. The problem with these is, if the mic is extended toward you on a boom or gooseneck, the stand can tip over. The Pyle Pro stand is unique with its weighted, u-shaped base. This places the center of gravity toward the back of the stand - the result is you can have a mic extended toward you with no worries of tipping.
The only caveat is that the included gooseneck is the only support you can use for your mic. Unlike other stands that use a standard thread in the base for various supports, the thread in the base of this unit is the same as that you normally would use to attach a microphone to.

Gooseneck Mic Stand is good, but won't hold a wireless mic as the holder is too tightMar 21, 2011
By Stephen W. Boyle
This gooseneck mic stand is good, but it won't hold a wireless mic as the holder is too tight. I'm sure it would be fine for a standard mic though. The mic holder on the stand can be stretched to hold the thicker wireless mic's with a little tweaking. And if you leave a wireless mic in the holder once you get it in, it does become easier to remove & insert the wireless mic after a while. But if you don't leave the mic in the stand when you store it, it will go back to being too tight again. The screw and nut for tightening the swivel on the mic holder does not stay tightened for very long. All and all, it's a good stand for the price though.

Great for Speech RecogntionJan 22, 2011
By R. D. Collins
I bought this to use with Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech-recognition software. It works a lot better than a typical desktop stand as it gets the mic close to my mouth despite the presence of the computer's keyboard between me and the mic stand. I was concerned that it might not be heavy enough to do that without tipping over as I'm using it with a Sennheiser 431-II mic, which is a relatively large and heavy microphone. However, it has proved to be up to the task, even with the head of the mic extended nearly a foot forward from the tip of the base, provided that the mic is directly in front of the base (it will tip if moved to either side of the base). It's very stable.
My only quibble is the roughness of the casting of the base, but that's purely looks and doesn't effect function. The gooseneck is of very good quality, but the mic clip is just OK -- I replaced it with the larger and sturdier clip that came with my Sennheiser mic.
Note that as of January 2011, Amazon was selling this mic stand for only $7.00, considerably less than what other sellers were charging. To find the Amazon price, look under "other sellers," add it to your cart, and then go to your cart and click on the item. It's annoying that Amazon now makes you do that to find the best price. Or try clicking here: [...]

Small. Portable. Cheap. Functional.Nov 17, 2011
By Daniel R. Dreifort
"Search Engine Optimization Guru"
Perfect for my obscure use.
I discarded the mic clip (or more so, added it to my collection,) and attached a RAM mount to the gooseneck. Now I have a universal articulating mount on a flexible post. What to do with it? I use this contraption to watch movies on my ipod touch on long flights. No more holding a little phone-sized thing up to my face for hours on end. This stand and the mount get the small screen right up to my line of vision.

Sturdy standAug 10, 2011
By Mike
"MHPhoto"
This little mic stand serves its purpose well. It's got plenty of heft, feels like it's of a good quality, and is very flexible. My only gripe is that the screw-on mic holder that came with our Sennheiser mic won't screw on to the stand, but the mic still fits into the stock holder. I would've thought that something like that would be an industry standard.
Anyway, if you need a good, cheap, and sturdy desktop mic holder, you can't go wrong with this one.
I'll amend the review should anything go wrong with it.
