What customers say
Customers highly value the On-Stage DS300B for its exceptional stability and robust build quality. The heavy cast-iron base prevents tipping, even with large microphones, which reviewers find essential for desktop audio setups. A key feature is the Posi-Lok clutch system, praised for securely locking the microphone height and angle without any slippage. Users consider this a significant upgrade over lighter stands, noting its durable construction. While some wish for slightly more vertical height adjustment, the superior locking strength provided by the mechanism is a worthwhile trade-off. Overall, the DS300B delivers professional-grade reliability perfect for podcasters and content creators.
Know before you buy
The DS300B features a 3-pound weighted base designed to provide significant stability. While it is robust enough for most standard microphones, very heavy large-diaphragm condensers may require careful positioning of the boom to maintain balance.
No, the stand does not include a microphone clip. However, it is compatible with all standard microphone clips, so you can easily attach the one that came with your microphone.
The stand utilizes a Posi-Lok twist-lock mechanism. Once tightened, it holds the 7-inch boom securely in your desired position, preventing it from sagging or slipping during use.
The base is equipped with non-slip rubber feet that protect your desk from scratches and prevent the stand from sliding or vibrating during recording sessions.
The 7-inch boom is primarily designed for angle and reach adjustments. The height of the microphone is determined by the fixed position of the boom arm on the base, making it best suited for desktop or podium use.
