Being a satisfied owner of a few MBS 400s, which I rate at 5*, I was expecting a quality product but man this surprised me! Slightly heavier and much more expensive than MBS 400 series but absolutely worth investing. I personally use this to attach a closed hi-hat stand so extra stability is a plus. On top of that this 600 series also has a feature to move one leg around the main tube for better placement near bass drum. In general 600 version features like tube locks, longer bar and fully adjustable cymbal holder make it top pro stand. If you can afford it, go for it, I don't regret.
