Product studyHeil Sound SB-2 Small Microphone Boom Arm

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Desk podcast or streaming setups where a full floor stand crowds the space
  • Getting a mic close to the mouth without blocking the screen
  • Rooms where a floor stand gets kicked or knocked

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Stage or live vocal use — this is a fixed desk fixture
  • Heavy large-diaphragm condensers or mics near the top of the arm's rating
  • Anyone needing long horizontal reach across a wide desk

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

Small boom arm

Short reach. Built for a mic sitting right in front of you, not for reaching across a table to a guest.

Detail 02

Boom arm, not a stand

Mounts to the desk edge or surface, so the desktop stays clear and floor noise is less of an issue.

Detail 03

Articulated arm design

Position is set by the arm joints, so you can swing the mic away between takes and return it to roughly the same spot.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01No microphone, shockmount or cable is included — budget for those separately
  2. 02Check your desk edge thickness and clearance for the mount before ordering
  3. 03Match arm capacity to your mic's weight; heavy mics cause droop on small arms

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Does this come with a microphone?

No. The SB-2 is the boom arm only. You supply the microphone, and any shockmount or clip it needs.

02Will it hold a Heil PR 40?

The PR 40 weighs about a pound. Confirm the SB-2's stated load rating against that plus any shockmount before committing.

03Is a cable included?

No XLR cable is included. Buy one long enough to route through or along the arm with slack at the joints.

04What thread does the mic end use?

Mic mounts and shockmounts vary between 5/8"-27 and 3/8" threads. Check the arm's thread and use an adapter if your clip differs.
