I still swear by the old USS stand system; I think it was called the "A-Frame" by some people? I have two of them (one for at home, one for gigs) plus a bunch of extra pieces and parts - I've used them for something like 25 years [hmm, maybe almost 30?! I'm getting old! :-) ] I bought most of it used, to it wasn't all that expensive (back in the 1980s/1990s that is)
I have customized them by adding power distribution (cords and power strips), small lights, etc. - and I drive a minivan, so I just quickly fold it up, throw it in the fan. And since they are aluminum, they are lightweight yet seem very sturdy.
I'm not sure if USS still makes this system ...
