Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. what's the mic weight limit on this?

A: This is a very well,, robustly made and constructed mirophone adapter. Maximum Recommended Weight Capacity: 5 kg. / 11 lb. We feel it is over-engineered and will support microphones like the Shure SM7B or Electro-Voice RE20 quite easily. Even a heavyweight like the AEA Ribbon Mics R44CX (7.56 lbs) is supported with no problem. We simply have not met the microphone that this adapter cannot handle.

Q: 2. Is there a similar stand - with a squeeze-handle for raising and lowering, for a video camera? Cam. is just a few lb.

A: We do not offer a tripod stand system similar to the Triad-Orbit T3C Rolling Tripod Stand and VESA Video Display Mount Kit (B&H # TRT3CMK) (B&H Kit), that features a squeeze handle colum lock release.

Q: 3. Is the IO-H2 5/8" Mounting version compatible with the IO-R Quick-Change IO-R Quick-Change Coupler Retrofit Kit? Want to set up a SM7B, Beta 58a, and Rode Procaster to easily swap on and off a Tama 5/8 thread MS756RELBK boom stand.

A: Yes. The IO-H2 5/8" Mounting Head from Triad-Orbit allows you to integrate 5/8" threaded gear to one of their IO-equipped stands or mounts, and is designed for added weight handling capacity.

Q: 4. What are the dimensions of the brass hex itself?

A: The brass hex section of the Triad-Orbit IO-H4 1/4"-20 Mounting Head is 1.5 inches long.

Q: 5. Can the ballast bag be emptied for travel, or would you recommend against it?

A: According to Triad-Orbit, you could theoretically unzip the bags and empty them, but the zipper is slightly hidden. The steel shot is in a secondary, thinner zippered pouch inside the main bag. The only downside would be filing it wherever you're traveling to. For example, using dry sand would have less than half the weight of the ballast material that the bag currently has inside.

Q: 6. Will this safely support an AEA R44C mic (nearly 8lbs.) at full extension?

A: The Triad-Orbit Starbird SB-1 Studio Boom Stand has a recommended maximum weight capacity of 10 kg/22 lbs and should accommodate an 8 pound microphone apparatus nicely with its VariBal Counter Ballast System.

Q: 7. It appears the mounting pins for the 1/4 20 male mounting screw are not removable? Any similar item to this to save me having to grind these pins off?

A: There does not seem to be another model of the Wooden Camera 1/4"-20 to 3/8"-16 ARRI-Style Accessory Adapter for SmallHD Monitors without twist pins. A possible alternate: CAMVATE 3/8"-16 ARRI-Style Anti-Twist Adapter BH #CAC3351

Q: 8. Collapsed/disassembled length?

A: While the manufacturer does not specify the collapsed length of the boom arm, we would estimate around 19'' based on maximum length photos from their website.

Q: 9. The Kali IN-5-C already comes with a backing plate almost identical to this. But Kali say the original IN-5 is not suitable for wall mounting. So is this for the original IN5 or not?

A: Yes, the Triad-Orbit Mounting Plate for Kali IN-5 Speakers is intended for use in wall mounting a single Kali Audio IN-5 3-Way Studio Monitor. You can see how it is attached to the wall and to the speaker in the photos shown on the item page.

Q: 10. what is the load capacity?

A: Not rated for weight. Designed for microphone for use. It is very rugged and robustly built. it should be able to handle any microphone.
