This stand and boom package includes a 34 inch aluminum tripod stand, which extends to 62 inches and a 32 inch aluminum boom. The stand is sturdy with rubber feet and a smooth, secure clutch mechanism. A top-of-the-line tripod-base mic stand, the MS9701TB is similar to the MS7701B, with even more pro features like thicker tubing, die-cast leg housing and rugged black powder-coat finish. The MS9701B will stand up to years of use on the road or in the studio.
