Default portable mic stands, quality issues?

I need a bunch of mic stands with booms for portable use. Some of the
microphones are heavy large diaphram types.

Are there any quality/feature issues?

Is there any kind of a base that resembles a triangular light stand, that
would provide steadiness with less weight than the traditional cast iron
round?


I'd suggest you visit the B&H web site:

They have all kinds of light-weight lighting tripods that can easily be
adapted to microphones via a thread-size adaptor. These are valuable and
often used by pros(I myself used them back in the seventies when I was
doing a lot of live on-site recording). However, they generally are not
useful for booms.


How about this:
