Re: K&M stands?

I have One huge heavy stand for my expensive mics. A Stage Stands one with huge base with wheels. The only other ones I could recommend are the ones Terry Manning's company makes, Latch Lake. They are really well made. Sorry to intrude on this K&M thread, but I wish correct a bit of misinformation ...

Or you could check out the new micKing from Latch Lake(http://www.latchlakemusic.com/new_stand.html). Similar list price to Atlas, but heavier, sturdier, tighter, and more compact. The 28 pound base and the mondo boom clutch are just what you need to hold your SE Reflexion filter as well as your hea...

Good Guys not so good

I had QSC amp at Good Guys. After 6-8 months of no action, I started to complain. I got the amp back after over a year, and it was not repaired!!!

And they charged me. Never again. The worst service ever.

Anyone that has old RCA ribbon mics should talk to Clarence. And don't wait a year, do it now.

Clarence used to work for RCA, and he's not getting any younger. He worked on my 77D and 44BX. Truly excellent work, reasonably priced. Great paint. This reminds me, I need to send him my 74B. Now.

InnerTube Audio Atomic Squeeze Box.

I vastly prefer it over a vintage 1176 E series, DBX 165, and repro LA2A for vocal use in most cases. Kicks major tail on acoustic guitars also.

vsr600:

I think if you compare your 70's Atlas stand to their current products you will be very disappointed.

Your stand was made in the USA.

Now they are all imports and the quality is nowhere near comparable.

FYI: new kick a** stand from Latch Lake

Latch Lake will introduce a new more affordable stand at AES this October. The stand will be true to the legacy of the micKing, but should be more affordable for project studio people. The new stand will use the same "world's strongest boom clutch" as the micKing. The new stand uses the same Latch L...

Former owner couldn't get it set up to stay in tune. For $25 it's perfect now.

I love the smell of Hammond oil on a summer day. It's the real thing babeeeeee! Think of yer Hammond as roughly 500 pounds of vintage inspiration. And for wurlies, 200s are OK, but the older units with the wood cases, like the 140B have the magic, crunch, and better dynamic range. Mojo for days. Cou...
