Well, I've got one of the big Atlas booms, and it won't tighten up on the boom itself - and never has. And the next size smaller stands (maybe the 25) that I use for drum overheads have two piece adjustable booms, and tyhe smaller piece has bent a little (which makes it tougher to work with than I'd like).

So I'm looking for some alternatives, and Bogen's look quite nice. Thanks for the link!
