PROEL DST140BK - Low and desktop microphone stand with fixed boom arm
The Proel DST140BK is a professional microphone stand designed to offer maximum stability in situations where precision and robustness are essential. Made with a solid cast iron base, this microphone stand stands out for its hybrid versatility: it's perfect for both floor placement (microphone low instruments) and tabletop use (conferences and broadcasting).
Unlike conventional lightweight stands, the DST140BK boasts a substantial 2.2 kg weight concentrated in its base, preventing accidental tipping even when using heavy or large-diaphragm condenser microphones. Its design incorporates an anti-vibration rubber ring on the bottom, a critical feature for sound engineers and podcasters, as it mechanically decouples the stand from the surface, eliminating unwanted noise transmitted through the floor or table (footsteps, desk knocks, or bass resonances).
The system includes a fixed 465 mm boom arm , allowing for precise and long-range microphone positioning without encroaching on the musician's or speaker's space. The vertical axis height is adjustable, enabling configurations from a very low position of 305 mm to an operating height of 435 mm, ideal for capturing the sweet spot of any sound source.
Main features
-
Heavy-Duty Base: High-density cast iron construction that ensures a low center of gravity and superior stability.
-
Acoustic insulation: Base equipped with technical anti-vibration rubber to filter low frequency noise and contact transmission.
-
Long reach boom arm: Fixed 465 mm arm that makes it easy to place the microphone in the center of amplifiers or bass drums without the base getting in the way.
-
Vertical telescopic adjustment: Smooth and firm height-adjustable mechanism, with safety lock to maintain the exact position.
-
Professional finish: Anti-reflective matte black coating, ideal for stages and television studios where visual discretion is important.
Benefits for the user
For musicians and studio engineers , the DST140BK eliminates the frustration of stands that "fall off" or shift position with the vibrations of a loud amplifier. The solid cast iron construction ensures that, once in place, the microphone will stay put.
For the content creator or broadcaster , this stand frees up visual space in front of the camera compared to large tripods, and its rubber isolation immediately improves recording quality by cleaning up background noise generated by movement on the work table.
Use cases
-
Recording drums: Ideal for miking the kick drum thanks to its low height and ability to insert the microphone into the resonant hole using the boom arm.
-
Guitar and bass amplifiers: Allows you to place the microphone right on the speaker cone without the stand touching the grille fabric.
-
Podcasting and Radio: Excellent as a sturdy table stand to hold heavy "broadcast" type microphones at the correct distance from the mouth.
-
Conferences and public speaking: An elegant and discreet solution for speakers' tables or lecterns.
-
Percussion and Strings: Useful for miking flamenco cajons, cellos or double basses while seated.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the arm (giraffe) extend or retract?
No, the arm is of fixed length (465 mm), which increases its rigidity and durability by eliminating moving parts that could wear out, but its angle and rotation are fully adjustable.
Is it compatible with any microphone clip?
Yes, the stand uses industry-standard threads, so it can attach any universal microphone clip or shock mount.
Does the foundation scratch delicate surfaces?
No, the lower rubber ring not only serves an acoustic function, but also protects wooden tables or delicate floors from scratches.
