The durable engineering prioritizes stability and longevity, allowing your microphone and signal chain to remain the focus.
Construction & Stability
Cast iron base construction provides substantial mass and resonant character that supports clean signal transmission without introducing mechanical noise or unwanted coloration. Rubber feet deliver isolation from the mounting surface, reducing vibration transfer and ensuring the stand remains stationary throughout extended sessions.
Connectivity & Integration
The 3-pin XLR-F connector on top accepts standard microphone mounts, while the rear 3-pin XLR-M connector allows direct signal routing or daisy-chaining to additional equipment. The removable front plate accommodates custom switch and indicator light installations for specialized studio or live configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this stand different from a standard mic stand?
The KM293/90 uses substantial cast iron construction and weighs approximately 10 pounds, delivering rock-solid vibration isolation and preventing micro-movements that can degrade signal quality. Standard tripod stands lack this mass and mechanical stability, making this ideal for fixed-position recording or broadcast work where every decibel counts.
What microphones and mounts does it accept?
The stand features a 3-pin XLR-F connector on top that accepts standard microphone mounts compatible with XLR-based mic clips. A rear 3-pin XLR-M connector allows direct signal routing or daisy-chaining to additional equipment.
Is this stand portable, or is it for permanent installation?
At 10 pounds, the KM293/90 is designed as a fixed table or floor stand for studios, live venues, and broadcast environments where stability outweighs portability. Its weight and cast iron construction make it a permanent solution rather than a traveling stand.
Can I customize this stand for my setup?
Yes—the removable front plate accommodates custom switch and indicator light installations, allowing you to integrate it into specialized studio or live configurations.
Does it protect my equipment and surfaces?
Rubber feet isolate the cast iron base from your mounting surface, reducing vibration transfer, protecting your floor or table, and keeping the stand stationary throughout extended sessions.
