K&M 21160 One-piece Boom

I recently purchased a sub-kick type microphone, that turned out to be very heavy and although I didn't need a long reach, I did require strength. The K&M products have always been good, strong and reliable, this short boom was perfect for what I needed and now after several gigs it remains as new and the microphone stays exactly where I want it... perfect for the task.

Great short arm for singing drummers. Simple and sturdy. I attached it to orchestral music stand's bottom for grater stability (the stand holds all my electronics too) and I DIY a grip so it can rotate freely for easy access and pushing the mic away when is not in use. I keep the stand next to my hihat stand so the lenght of the arm would be perfect for everyone with smaller (kick, snare, tom and floor) set and tight groove.

Bought several of these to replace my standard long ones.
Great quality !

I have a couple of these which I use on the Millennium mic stand bases for acoustic instruments on stage and in the studio. They're very good quality, everything fits well without being over tight. Easily adjustable and the compact size means they can fit into tight spaces.

Doesn't seem that robust, but has been in use in my music school for a couple years without any problem so far.

As a singer-guitarist, I can't use a one-piece mic stand; I need room for the guitar. But two-piece stands break too easily. The answer: a one-piece upright stand, with a short boom - and this one is perfect. Essential kit!

Very nice boom. Good build quality, looking all right, fits my K&M straight stand and creates just enough space for me to sing to the mic while playing guitar.

I got some ultra cheap mic stands earlier this year, and when the boom arms started to break on those, I needed new ones.
So, I got a bunch of these, and I'm really happy with them. I use them for drum miking mostly.
Since the boom arms are quite short, the mic stand needs to be close to the drum, but the plus side is that the boom arm won't get in the way outside the drum set, which is great if you are working with really small spaces, like I am.

I'm using the item in a home project as a hanging mic stand inside a DIY vocal booth. It fits my needs.
At first I was amazed by how heavy it is. I expected something more fragile. Pretty nice surprise. It is sturdy and the bolts stay tight.

I got this for my Manfrotto Nano Stand 5001B as a lightweight and highly portable microphone stand. Excellent quality as always by K&M, highly recommended!
