I bought 4 of these stands.
I am using these stands to mic out my floor toms, I have also used them on guitar cabinets (halfstack's) and hi-hat.
These are pretty basic, good quality mic stands.
Nothing wrong with them, but in the end height is something I miss. In order to gain certain height you have to use the boom, and that is something I think is not very helpfull.
Overall view on this item is that it works pretty well to mic out guitar cabinets and/or floor toms. but thats it.
