One of the most widely used microphone stands, here is the industry standard for microphone tripods. Built in 1967, the design of the 210/2 has remained almost unchanged and has to date been sold more than 2 million times.
Very sturdy mechanical parts, such as the diecast base, guarantees a long life even under harsh conditions on the road. The adjustable boom arm and generous height-adjustment makes it also very suitable for musicians who also need to sing.
The K&M 210/2 Black from the company's Topline series is a true classic among microphone stands, remaining virtually unchanged since its introduction in 1967. With over two million units sold, its simple yet reliable design has stood the test of time on countless stages worldwide. Adjustable up to 1.6 metres in height, it is well-suited for standing vocal performances as well as miking orchestral instruments. The single adjustable main tube allows for quick and easy height adjustments, while the sturdy steel construction and three metal feet ensure a stable and secure foundation on any surface. Whether for live performances or studio recordings, this iconic mic stand continues to be the industry standard among professionals.
The K&M 210/2 Black features an adjustable height of 0.9m to 1.6m, which can be easily set using a clamping clutch that locks firmly in place with a quick twist. The one-piece boom arm allows for precise microphone positioning via the T-bar locking screw, and an optional microphone mount with a 3/8" threaded connection can be attached to the end of the boom arm. Additionally, the K&M 210/2 Black comes with an adjustable black cable clip on the stand itself, for strain relief and a tidy setup.
This cost-effective microphone stand offers durability and flexibility, making it ideal for instrument miking at head height. Its 80.4cm boom arm ensures that any musician's instrument can be positioned at an optimum distance from the stand. The sleek black design keeps it discreet on stage, making it a great choice for live performances. When not in use, the stand folds down for compact storage and transport, and for added convenience, an optional water-repellent carrying bag made of tear-resistant nylon is available that features two carrying straps for over-the-shoulder transport and inner compartments for accessories, thus providing a practical and secure solution for musicians on the move.
Founded in 1949, König & Meyer (K&M) initially produced music stands and measuring tools. Just two years later, the range was expanded to include instrument stands and microphone tripods, which are still the core business of the manufacturer today – and are still manufactured in their facilities in Wertheim, Germany. K&M also produces musicians' stools, stands for speakers, monitors, and lighting, and a range of accessories for mobile devices, such as tablet mounts. To satisfy the company's own exacting standards, even the individual metal and plastic components continue to be manufactured primarily in the company's factory in Wertheim, with particular emphasis placed on environmentally friendly and sustainable production.
In combination with a separately available microphone, the K&M 210/2 Black is a versatile choice for capturing vocals or instruments, such as trumpets, for example. The integrated boom arm extends the microphone at a comfortable distance from the stand, allowing for greater freedom of movement while minimising the risk of accidental contact. Beyond standard applications, this stand can also be used for more elevated sound sources. Whether as an overhead mic for drums, for AB miking of a choir, or for capturing multiple stacked guitar amplifiers, the K&M 210/2 Black provides stable and adaptable positioning.
