K&M Stands 21160 Classic Short Mic Boom Arm (Black)

Compact Boom Arm for Tight Mic Placement Requirements
The K&M 21160.500.55 is a short, telescopic microphone boom arm engineered for precision placement in space-limited recording, broadcast, and stage environments. With an adjustable length up to 15.5", it provides targeted reach without unnecessary bulk, making it ideal for use with amps, snare drums, podcast setups, and desktop rigs.

Perfect for Low-Profile Studio and Stage Applications
When your mic needs to get in close without overextending, this boom arm provides just the right amount of reach. It’s ideal for tight spots where full-length booms are overkill—like under cymbal stands, near drum kits, or when close-miking guitar cabinets. It’s also great for workstations or interview setups where compact gear is a must.

Quick Adjustments With Reliable Locking Control
The built-in wing nut locking system ensures quick, tool-free adjustments to boom length and angle. Once set, the clamp holds securely to prevent mic sag or unwanted drift, even during extended sessions. Whether you’re repositioning between takes or during a set, the locking system gives you consistent control.

Swivel Joint Allows Smooth, Noise-Free Mic Movement
A precision-machined swivel joint provides quiet mic angle adjustments—critical for both recording and live use where avoiding handling noise is key. The silent operation helps keep your audio clean and allows you to reposition microphones mid-session without causing disruptive mechanical noise.

Compatible With Standard 5/8-Inch Threaded Mic Stands
Designed to work with most industry-standard mic stands, the boom arm connects via a 5/8" thread. It supports standard microphone clips, shock mounts, and goosenecks, giving it maximum compatibility with your existing setup—whether in the studio, on stage, or in a content creation space.

Durable Black Steel Construction Built for Repeated Use
Made from high-quality steel and finished in matte black, the 21160.500.55 is built to handle the daily wear of demanding audio environments. It’s sturdy enough for gigging musicians, rental houses, or AV professionals who need consistent performance across applications.

An Essential Tool for Focused Mic Control
If you’re looking for a boom arm that offers reliable functionality without taking up unnecessary space, this short telescopic model is a solid choice. Its adjustable reach, quiet operation, and rugged design make it a staple for low-profile mic setups.
