Detail 01
InnerLock memory-system compatibility
It supports repeatable height adjustment and can still fully collapse for storage or transport.

Independent shopping perspective
Built for cymbal placement that needs to remain consistent through demanding setups, the 9700X converts between boom and straight configurations. Its heavy-gauge tubing and Ultra-Rigid tripod base support stable use, including extended boom-arm positions. The toothless tilter with TechLock and auto-locking boom ratchet allow detailed angle changes, while quick-release wingnuts with cymbal felts help speed adjustments between rehearsal, session, and performance setups. InnerLock compatibility supports repeatable height settings while the stand still collapses for transport and storage.
