Gator Shure SH-BROADCAST1 Podcast Boom Mic Stand

I've had a bad experience with traditional spring mounted booms over time. So, for a long time using one has left a bad taste in my mouth. I'll keep my impressions brief: Pros: * Great Cable Management, cannot even see the cable * Great length * Extension arm provides a great amount of flexibility for different kinds of mics * Very stable * Can fit just about any kind of desktop provided you have a large enough lip * Metal constuction (aluminum?) * Well packaged for shipping Cons: * Cable management setup is a pain, but it's a one time thing. * It's large and doesn't easily collapse away when not in use * $$$ Expensive at $91! Fortunately I got a "Used (Like New)" one for about $60. At this price point I feel it was a good value. * Joints are plastic, and possibly a point of failure * When not tightened, my AKG mic was too heavy for the spring, and it slowly falls - But not an issue if you tighen it. Could be a downside depending on the weight of your mic.

Ik heb de shure arm besteld om te gebruiken met mijn SM7B ik heb de B keus genomen dat scheelt wat geld en de artikelen zijn "vaak al" prima. Nu miste het "extenderstuk" en dus was de arm onbruikbaar voor mijn mic !! Ik kon de arm terugsturen en een nieuwe bestellen maar daar gaan ook weer dagen overheen en veel rompslomp. De verkoper mailen en vragen hoe dit op te lossen was niet mogelijk. Uiteindelijk bij thomann een extender besteld en nu is het ok wel slordig en een beetje sneu!

This boom arm works great. It's large enough and strong enough to handle the weight of a Shure SM7B. It gets the mic up and overhead which allows me to make better use of my desk space. It's expensive but worth it when compared against cheaper and less robust options.

Juste top-tier, l’installation facile, pas un ressort de visible contrairement à d'autres bras. Les cables se passent facilement. Rien à redire

Almost damaged my sm7dB. The string inside broke from the attachment and the mic arm lost its hold all of a sudden and the mic fell down. In just one year this arm is now in the trash. Totally disappointed by seeing the flimsy design for an arm bragging about ability to hold heavy mics like sm7dB.
