      Comments about Shure A27M Stereo Stand Adapter:

      I am a professional recording engineer. I have used the A27M to record live performances as well as in the studio. It is a perfect solution for quickly setting up a coincident or near-coincident pair.

      This elegant design uses only one knurled knob to secure the microphone angles. It holds them more securely than other stereo bars I own. No more accidental spinning or using a pliers to tighten anything.

      There is a small built-in protractor with markings every 45º. The protractor is not the easiest thing to use, but my other stereo bars don't have a protractor at all. I have successfully set my mic angles to 90º as well as 135º without additional tools.

      When I record live performances, I need my set-up to be attractive and unobtrusive. The audience and the performers really notice when your microphone rig is large or ugly. The A27M fits the bill perfectly. It also comes with a clip to keep your cables tidy.

      The only improvement I could suggest to Shure would be to make the top and bottom pieces black like the rest of it to maintain its stealth.

        Comments about Shure A27M Stereo Stand Adapter:

        This is a very well made, nice looking adapter. So far I've used it just for an ORTF configuration, and it works very well. I've screwed it onto a 12' photo stand using a 5/8 to 3/8 adapter, and it works just fine. No complaints so far. I think this is something that I'll frequently and for a very long time; it seems built to last.

        Comments about Shure A27M Stereo Stand Adapter:

        I've tried other stereo bar adapters, but keep returning to the Shure A27M stereo bar. It has bulletproof steel construction, is easy to configure for different stereo mic setups. XY, ORTF are easy. DIN is harder, might be OK but depends on the length of your mics and mic mounts/holders. I use the A27M in conjunction with a Manfrotto lighting stand and a Manfrotto Rapid Adapter, and use AT4021b shockmounts to position my mics for a live stereo recording. In summary, this stereo bar is very versatile and recommended for live recording.

          I am using this for ORTF recording with my Beyerdynamic MC930 pair. It's easy to figure out the ORTF positioning.

          i use to connect my sennheiser k6 capsules. i can get all angles. the only flaw that scares me. 20' in the air with mics attached can be heavy. would you want 10lbs falling on you.

            Comments about Shure A27M Stereo Stand Adapter:

            I've had this thing for a month and I've already used it on a couple of gigs. It's made my life way easier! It's incredibly easy to setup and it won't shift or move during the performance.

            It is heavy though so make sure you have a good quality mic stand. I use a 14' Ultimate studio boom and it works great with that!

            The only thing I can tell you is it's very hard to put two shock mounts on it. It's little tight when you have two on there and I had a hard time getting my angles right. I went back to the stand clips on my mics.

                  Suffering with stereo bars and need a professional solution? This is it. Any near coincident placement you can imagine, this will be your final solution. It is solid too. Great heft. Just remember, this will not be your spaced AB omni solution. No arrangement will get you to the 40cm minimum for spaced pairs.

                      Recently switched from a traditional stereo t-bar to the A27 for recording live concerts. Love the flexibility in regards to mic positioning. Seems to be well made & durable. Overall, I'm really happy with this product
