"This can then be screwed into your Blue Snowball and therefore attached to your new mic arm."
"This means that pretty much all shock mounts will attach to this - you just have to use the little piece that comes attached to the included mic holder."
"It fits perfectly and some others who have answered the questions on this product have shared a video that a gentlemen has posted on youtube, showing exactly how to make this arm stand work with the Snowball."
"As you can see from my included photos it easily holds the mic at a 45 degree angle, vertical, and inverted with no noticeable sag (although it does have a slight play at the mic attachment point which doesn't really cause much issue."
"The vice clamp is made from plastic which I am a bit concerned about at first because it has to counter weight all the force from a suspended mic some distance away, but for the most part it doesn't seem to be flexing or struggling."
"That is NOT a fault of the product, but if your desk isn't flat and squared off no mount will really work."
"The mic holder it comes with this boom stand has the piece under it that you need to unscrew and use on your yeti mic."

"It seems more as if it just looks into place whenever I pull it out, so I never have to fiddle with it to get it in the right place... This can then be screwed into your Blue Snowball and therefore attached to your new mic arm... It's also smaller than you may think, so do your research well and have a few ideas on where you are able to attach it that won't be considered in the way in the future."
"This means that pretty much all shock mounts will attach to this - you just have to use the little piece that comes attached to the included mic holder. Unscrew it from there and use it between the new mic mount and the metal end of this boom arm and that's all she wrote... It's not like it's going to fall off your desk randomly and you shouldn't be hitting it too heavily either, but if you pull on it in various directions enough times and with enough force the clamp might move a bit."
"You can force the pivot, but this will scratch the metal and also rub the base arm along the mount, causing the metal to shave from the grinding of the two... It fits perfectly and some others who have answered the questions on this product have shared a video that a gentlemen has posted on youtube, showing exactly how to make this arm stand work with the Snowball... - The scissor arm allows versatile movement up and down, while the mounting part that holds your microphone also adjusts."
"As you can see from my included photos it easily holds the mic at a 45 degree angle, vertical, and inverted with no noticeable sag (although it does have a slight play at the mic attachment point which doesn't really cause much issue... Take note that the stand itself is of a smaller size with the length of the arm from one joint to another at about 14... Since it pretty easily holds the heavy Yeti, it should be even better for smaller, lighter mics (NOTE: I recently purchased the AT2020USB as well and it works well with this mic as well."
"The arm itself is made from light and strong metal (I think it's aluminium but not too sure) it won't bend or flex so it's pretty strong. The vice clamp is made from plastic which I am a bit concerned about at first because it has to counter weight all the force from a suspended mic some distance away, but for the most part it doesn't seem to be flexing or struggling. The vice bit is a little on the small side so I had to really dig it into my desk to get a firm hold and I would recommend everyone wedging something soft so it doesn't chew the desk."
"That is NOT a fault of the product, but if your desk isn't flat and squared off no mount will really work... Even with a $99 mount I would have had to modify the clamp on point as my desk is not suitable for these things. The stand doesn't sag any even with the heavy yeti, and with my set-up now I am 100% hands free with no microphone blocking."
"The mic holder it comes with this boom stand has the piece under it that you need to unscrew and use on your yeti mic... The boom stretches about 30" inches, that's not counting whatever your microphone size pokes out,with my Yeti attached it can stick out a total of 39" inches... What you will need to do on it if you plan to use it on the Blue Yeti Mic, you're going to have to tighten up the nuts because the Yeti mic is huge and heavy and that's not the Neewers fault."

"I realized this before I attached the mic as it would make little difference of it could stand its own weight, let alone that of a mic... It's been a week since I've received it and have witnessed not really any flaw that wouldn't be apparent... It seems more as if it just looks into place whenever I pull it out, so I never have to fiddle with it to get it in the right place... The clamp is even padded, which calms me to know I don't have to worry about scratching the wood should I end up bumping it in the future... The mic holder that comes with has a piece that screws out. This can then be screwed into your Blue Snowball and therefore attached to your new mic arm... It's also smaller than you may think, so do your research well and have a few ideas on where you are able to attach it that won't be considered in the way in the future."
"Like other reviews state, this arm will work with standard mic mount threading. This means that pretty much all shock mounts will attach to this - you just have to use the little piece that comes attached to the included mic holder. Unscrew it from there and use it between the new mic mount and the metal end of this boom arm and that's all she wrote... You could obviously have better stability and attachments with something from Rode or Heil which I believe make heavier duty boom arms. It's not like it's going to fall off your desk randomly and you shouldn't be hitting it too heavily either, but if you pull on it in various directions enough times and with enough force the clamp might move a bit... This one can tend to have a slight sag to it, and by that I don't mean it continually gets lower and lower until it's hitting the floor. I just find myself having to start it out higher than where I need it and it will settle into where I want it."
"The design of the stand seems to require the base to be placed on the backside of your desk/table that you will be using... Where the arm enters the base, there is a slit on the side that looks like the tightening screw can go into, tightening the arm while allowing you to pivot it... You can force the pivot, but this will scratch the metal and also rub the base arm along the mount, causing the metal to shave from the grinding of the two... It's not much of a bother if you're mounting from the back of your desk, but if you're doing so from the side, it's a slightly different story... It fits perfectly and some others who have answered the questions on this product have shared a video that a gentlemen has posted on youtube, showing exactly how to make this arm stand work with the Snowball... - The scissor arm allows versatile movement up and down, while the mounting part that holds your microphone also adjusts... Overall: Even though I'm having a slight problem with the pivoting and the securing of the arm stand, it still works well and doesn't hinder what it's designed to do."
"The mic stand is of average lightweight quality but the joints feel nice and sturdy and no tightening was needed at the main joints... As you can see from my included photos it easily holds the mic at a 45 degree angle, vertical, and inverted with no noticeable sag (although it does have a slight play at the mic attachment point which doesn't really cause much issue. ) The stand doesn't have full swivel movement but it definitely has enough back and forth movement to adjust it to your liking. Take note that the stand itself is of a smaller size with the length of the arm from one joint to another at about 14... The stand does comes with an adapter so that you can mount the Yeti with no problems... Since it pretty easily holds the heavy Yeti, it should be even better for smaller, lighter mics (NOTE: I recently purchased the AT2020USB as well and it works well with this mic as well. ) The main reason I purchased this was to get rid of the slight knocking noise the Yeti would pick up from my keyboard/mouse use and this stand has essentially eliminated this, even with the stand clamped on the same desk."
"I haven't used a suspension arm before this one, so I don't have any basis of comparison so I will try my best to describe the product. The arm itself is made from light and strong metal (I think it's aluminium but not too sure) it won't bend or flex so it's pretty strong. The vice clamp is made from plastic which I am a bit concerned about at first because it has to counter weight all the force from a suspended mic some distance away, but for the most part it doesn't seem to be flexing or struggling. The vice bit is a little on the small side so I had to really dig it into my desk to get a firm hold and I would recommend everyone wedging something soft so it doesn't chew the desk. I just wedged some packing foam and that seems to do the job alright... I can move my mic to all sorts of positions and the arm will happily move there without sagging down... All the joints are held in with bolts so every bit of it can be manually tightened."
"The yeti adapter is inside the normal mic holder, unscrew it, screw it into the yeti, and boom... That is NOT a fault of the product, but if your desk isn't flat and squared off no mount will really work... Even with a $99 mount I would have had to modify the clamp on point as my desk is not suitable for these things. The stand doesn't sag any even with the heavy yeti, and with my set-up now I am 100% hands free with no microphone blocking. When it's out of use I can just fold it up and be done with it. The ONLY issue I've noticed is if you want the Yeti to sit sideways its a BIT heavy so it sags a tiny bit, but it is do-able sideways. Overall the build quality is very nice, much nicer than I expected for the price."
"I have a Blue Yeti Microphone, and I wanted to hang it up instead of it being on my desk where i move my hands and bang on the counter... Now about my Yeti, If you have one, this is a cheap alternative compared to the official products made for the mic... but if you don't want to spend $80+ on that, well then look no further, you can use this one. The mic holder it comes with this boom stand has the piece under it that you need to unscrew and use on your yeti mic. It's plastic but it works and I didn't have to buy any other attachment so I'm happy about that. The boom stretches about 30" inches, that's not counting whatever your microphone size pokes out,with my Yeti attached it can stick out a total of 39" inches... What you will need to do on it if you plan to use it on the Blue Yeti Mic, you're going to have to tighten up the nuts because the Yeti mic is huge and heavy and that's not the Neewers fault."
