The K & M 24116 is a fantastic purchase, possibly the best our band has ever made.
Our old speaker stand just sat into the mount, and the top would often shake, or if people knocked into the bass bin then the top would look like it was going to fall sometimes, also taking the speaker off the stand was awkward sometimes.
With the purchase of this speaker mount we don't need to worry about that any more, everything stays steady and the speakers are easy to take off the pole
