I read it and went over to my keyboard and took my EV 737 off the stand and it weights very little. I think most of the weight comes from the xlr cable dangling down. Maybe a wireless would be more comfortable ?? _________________________ Bill in SC --- Roland BK9 (2) Roland BK7M, Roland PK5 Pedals, Roland FP90, Roland CM30 (2), JBL Eon Ones (2) JBL 610 Monitor, Behringer Sub, EV mics, Apple iPad (2) Behringer DJ mixer

Yes they all seem lightweight but in this scenario OUNCES matter when you have to hold it over an hour long. The Senn mics are heavy duty and heavier then most that's ok for stand mount..

Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43703	Well the Samson Q8 came and went fast! ....took it out of the box it felt like a IRON DUMBELL Might work ok on a Mic stand, vs having to hold it for 3 or 4 hours.. ......sang a few tunes with it not too bad but it just didn't have the "dynamic quality" or gain of what I am used to. I guess you get what you pay for Packed it up and returned it Immediately. Lesson learned. I'll just stick with my all time favorite wired handheld Shure BETA 58a Mic!
