Detail 01
Straight/boom convertible
The boom arm retracts or comes off, so one stand covers a straight crash position and an angled reach position.

DW5700 Heavy-Duty Straight/Boom Cymbal Stand
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Heavy-duty double-braced cymbal stand with a removable boom arm, so it works as either a straight stand or a boom.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Holding a large or heavy ride cymbal without the stand creeping
- Reaching a cymbal over a rack tom or across the kit
- Gigging kits that get loaded in and out constantly
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers watching weight in a carry-everything setup
- Small practice kits where a lightweight stand is enough
- Anyone needing a stand for anything other than a cymbal
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
Heavy-duty double-braced legs
Wider, stiffer base. It resists walking when you hit hard, at the cost of weight and floor space.
Detail 03
5700 series
DW's heavier hardware tier. Built around larger tubing and stronger joints than their lightweight touring lines.
Detail 04
Boom arm reach
Lets you place a cymbal away from the base, so legs do not fight your bass drum or rack toms.
Detail 05
Around $185
Priced above entry hardware. You are buying tube thickness and joint strength, not extra features.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Cymbal not included; this is hardware only
- 02Felts and wing nut are part of the stand, but check them before a gig
- 03Double-braced legs take more floor space than single-braced
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this as a plain straight stand?
Yes. The boom arm converts or comes off, leaving a straight stand. That is the point of the design, so you are not stuck with a boom you do not need.
02Will it hold a 22-inch ride?
Yes. This is DW's heavy-duty tier with double-braced legs, built for large, heavy cymbals rather than light crashes.
03Is it too heavy for gigging?
It is heavier than a lightweight stand. If you load in and out by hand every night and carry several stands, the weight adds up. It buys stability in return.
04Does it fit non-DW cymbals and kits?
Yes. Cymbal stands use standard threading and sizing, so it works with any brand of cymbal and sits alongside any kit's hardware.
