K&M 259/1 Extra Low Microphone Stand with Boom Arm, Black

The K&M 259/1 is an extra low microphone stand engineered for precise placement where standard stands won’t fit—think kick drums, guitar cabs, and tight stages. Built on a stable, foldable tripod with a zinc die-cast base, it ships complete with a fixed boom arm for fast, repeatable setups. The stand’s compact geometry—a fixed 11.02" height with a 20.67" boom—keeps mics close to sources while staying out of sightlines. Rugged steel construction and a positive T-bar locking screw on the boom maintain position through rehearsals and showtime alike. A 5/8" threaded connector ensures broad compatibility with standard clips and shock mounts in US-based rigs. At just 4.189 lb (?1.9 kg), it’s easy to position without sacrificing rigidity, making it a dependable workhorse for studio and stage. Whether you’re close-miking a bass drum, sneaking under a floor tom, or tucking beside an amp, the 259/1’s low profile and solid mechanics deliver clean, confident placement with minimal footprint. This is classic König & Meyer: purpose-built hardware that disappears into the job and simply works.
