Sontronics stands out in the crowd
2008 is a groundbreaking year for Sontronics,
thanks to the release of the brand's first handheld dynamic
mic (the STC-80) and the soon to arrive European-made preamps
(CHIMERA and SONORA).
Now
comes a mobile mounting system in the shape of the MATRIX10
professional mic stand. Designed to support a weight of
up to 6 kilograms, this light but sturdy stand with telescopic
boom arm is made from brushed aluminium tubing and features
a heavy-duty ABS clamp and quick-release adjustment clips.
The
centre post extends from 1.12 to 1.70 metres and is internally
damped to support heavy loads. The boom arm extends from
1.2 metres to an impressive 2.25 metres and is counterbalanced
by a moveable cast-iron weight.
The
Sontronics MATRIX10 comes with a dolly cart that transforms
it from a static stand into a mobile one. The dolly can
be fitted to the tripod in seconds thanks to its simple
adjusting clamps, and adds 10cm to the overall height of
the stand. Each wheel has a foot-operated brake to provide
optimum stability. When not in use, the wheels fold up to
be stored in the rugged canvas bag.
