Independent shopping perspective
DW’s 9701X is a low boom cymbal stand for ride cymbals and effects that need deliberate placement. It converts between straight and boom modes, with an Infinite Toothless Tilter plus TechLock for detailed angle adjustment and secure placement. The Easy-Lock Boom Tilter and quick-release wingnuts help speed changes between setups. Heavy-gauge tubing, an Ultra-Rigid tripod base, and InnerLock memory work together to support repeatable positioning, including extended boom-arm arrangements.
