Frequently asked questions
What microphone types does each stand support?
The ST6 mounts AKG DAC, DAM, and DAM+ series gooseneck microphones to desktops. The HM1000 M suspends all DAM+ Series condenser capsules (CK41, CK43, CK49) from overhead rigging.
Which is better for live sound or broadcast?
Both suit professional use. The ST6 works for console-mounted or stage-side positions. The HM1000 M excels overhead in live venues and broadcast studios where ceiling rigging is available.
How do isolation and vibration handling compare?
The ST6 uses heavy-duty shock absorption at the table base to reject handling and desk vibration. The HM1000 M isolates via spring steel suspension, minimizing mechanical coupling to rigging.
What cable and connectivity differences exist?
The ST6 has XLR input and output connectors for standard patching. The HM1000 M includes a 10 m special cable with tapered connectors (9–11.3 mm) and integrates with DAM+ Series phantom power.
