  • Adding a crash or ride over a full kit
  • Players standardizing hardware on one DW series

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 01

Straight/boom convertible

One stand does close-in straight placement or reaches over toms and a ride without buying a second stand.

Detail 02

Boom position

Angled reach lets you hang a cymbal where a straight tube physically cannot sit, over the kick or rack toms.

Detail 03

$269.99 for a single stand

This is one cymbal position. Outfitting a four-cymbal kit at this level is a four-stand purchase.

Detail 04

DW 9700 hardware

Matches other DW 9000-series stands in look and clamp sizing if you are building a matched hardware set.

Detail 05

Cymbal stand, not a boom arm

Freestanding on its own legs. It does not need a rack or another stand to work.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01No cymbal included, and no felts or sleeve beyond what ships on the stand
  2. 02Full-size stands need real floor space around the throne
  3. 03Measure your throw before committing to boom reach over toms

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does this come with a cymbal?

No. It is the stand only. You supply the cymbal.

02Can I use it as a straight stand?

Yes. It converts between straight and boom, so you can run it either way.

03Will it fit my other DW hardware?

It is DW 9000-series hardware, so it matches other DW stands in that line for a consistent setup.

04Is one stand enough for a starter kit?

One stand holds one cymbal. A crash plus a ride needs two stands, or a stand plus a clamp off existing hardware.
