The Chauvet DJ FLEXstand is a safe, versatile, and convenient alternative to traditional pipe and base stands. Whether you need to mount a speaker for live sound reinforcement or lighting gear for event booths and video shoots, you'll be happy to have the FLEXstand at your next gathering. The FLEXstand features a heavy-duty cast iron base to resist tipping and wobbling, even under its max load (132 pounds). Its multi-use pole threading is set up to accommodate a range of different lighting and audio gear. One feature techs at Sweetwater especially appreciate is the trigger-style safety release, which makes it safe and easy to adjust speaker/lighting heights and lock gear safely into place — even when you're flying solo.
