Stereo Mic Bar

[Drummer4Life05]

I'm looking for a quality stereo mic bar.
Something that will fit 2 Oktava MC-012's.

Thanks,
Justin

You could make your own if you are good with tools and the sort. A simple one would just be a piece of metal and 2 of the thread caps that come on some mic stands. It would be cheap and easy to build with just a few welds.

Well, I guess you could try doing a search for "STEREO MIC BAR" on the internet..... Google, eBay, MSN Search, Yahoo will return results. Do you have access to the internet??

Of course I could have done that. And I did.
But there's so many out there, I wanted YOUR opinion on which one you use and why. OnStage stuff is usually crap. I want something that is quality and will last be a while.

Check out AEA then. They're bars are also marked so you can recreate your setup easily.

This stuff ain't cheap, but it should last at least a couple lifetimes.

For something smaller and cheaper, try this:

I actually have an On-Stage 5 mic bar... Variable spaicing and angles... the thing is solid steel, and would knock out most folks with a single blow!!!

Seriously, it's a quality piece... eBay, $14....

Thanks C7. That's more what I was looking for.

turnitdown - I might get the OnStage one for starters. I have 3 OnStage boom stands and they're pretty much crap when you get them up high enough. One of the poles is bent, but I guess that bar is better quality!

Thanks to you both!

I have this one....http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29948&item=3734726142&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

They also have doubles for $9.99.... great company...

I agree about the stands.... crap. (but cheap)

These are made by a different supplier I would guess....

Cool, thanks for the link!

I looked at a lot of stereobars but they all looked either too flimsy or not adjustable enough. Then I looked at my drum hardware and got inspired. I got a couple drum hardware clamps, the basic kind that you can use to, say, mount a cymbal boom off a tom stand and a couple 4" mic extension tubes. These are plenty solid and you can adjust them about any way you can think of.
