The 10 Best Microphone Stands

A nice solution for on-the-go interviews or small speaker events, the Gator Mini is a sturdy, compact model that sets up quickly on a desk, table or podium. The legs are collapsible, so once you’re finished with it, you can fold it up and put it in a backpack.

We wouldn’t recommend swinging it around as you sing and dance, but the On Stage MS7700B should suit you well if you’re looking for something basic and affordable. Its height adjusts from 32 to 61.5 inches, providing plenty of flexibility.

The InnoGear Suspension is compatible with Blue Yeti and Snowball microphones, but it should work for other brands that are similar in size and style, too. It’s built with an integrated spring that helps prevent shaking and comes with a mounting clamp.

Since you can adjust the height of the stem and rotate the arm to whatever angle you please, the Ohuhu Black should allow you to obtain the ideal position. It’s a nice value, though it probably won’t last for years of regular gigs and events.

For such a bargain, you’ll likely be impressed with how the World Tour MS7 performs in a studio or even on stage. It’s lighter than most metal models, and it’s designed with an intuitive clutch that allows for one-handed height adjustments.

The On Stage DS7200B may be little, but when we’re talking about a tabletop model, that’s a good thing. Its base consists of five rubber feet that provide reliable stability on most surfaces as you make announcements or dispatch important messages.

Rugged and steady, the Pyle PMKS56 doesn’t want to spend the year stuffed into a closet in between gigs — it yearns to be on the road, taking on the daily grind of a long tour or traveling show. It’s well-balanced and comes with a universal mic adapter.

A cheap, lightweight model is great when it’s just fun and games, but when you need secure support for expensive equipment at professional events, you’ll want to go with a heavy-duty selection, like the Gator GFW. You can quickly adjust it to a wide range of heights.

Whether audio activities are part of your occupation or simply a side passion, the Gator Short is a sharp-looking, highly functional piece of equipment that will take your pursuits to the next level. It features a cable management clip to keep your working area tidy, too.

Designed to meet the standards of respected professionals in the world of concerts and live events, the K & M Telescopic is as flexible and easy to use as it is strong and durable. It’s built with solid steel and backed by a five-year warranty.
