Detail 01
Heavy-duty round base
Thicker casting than the entry stand. Resists tipping when a mic is raised high, at the cost of real carrying weight.

Atlas SoundMS20 Heavy-Duty Round Base Mic Stand Ebony
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Heavy-duty round-base mic stand in black. For stands that get loaded in nightly or hold heavier mics without creeping down.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Nightly gigging where a light stand would already be bent
- Black stage sets where chrome would catch lights
- Holding heavier studio mics steady at full height
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone who needs boom reach over a drum kit
- Carrying to gigs on foot or by transit
- A first stand for a bedroom setup on a budget
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Ebony black finish
Disappears against dark stages and on camera. Hides scuffs far better than chrome over years of use.
Detail 03
Straight, no boom arm
Mic sits over the base. Good for a singer standing at it, no good for reaching over an amp or kit.
Detail 04
Metal clutch
Height holds under load instead of slipping mid-set. This is the failure point on cheap stands.
Detail 05
Roughly double the MS-12C price
You are paying for base mass and clutch strength, not extra features. Same straight-stand function.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Microphone and clip are separate purchases. The stand alone is what ships.
- 02The cast base is heavy. Count it when you plan how many you can carry per trip.
- 03Check your mic clip thread matches standard 5/8"-27 before ordering.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What's the difference from the MS-12C?
The MS20 is the heavy-duty version: a heavier base and stronger clutch for mics that would make the lighter stand creep or tip. Both are straight round-base stands.
02Black or chrome MS20?
Identical stand and price. Black hides on dark stages and shows wear less; chrome is brighter and more visible under lights.
03Will the height slip during a set?
The heavy-duty clutch is the point of this model. It's built to hold a loaded mic at height instead of sinking, unlike lighter stands.
04Is it too heavy for regular gigs?
It's noticeably heavier than a tripod or the MS-12C. That mass is what keeps it upright, but it's real weight on every load-in.
