Product Overview

The STV 60 (006189) is a premium mechanical component designed for "set-and-forget" reliability in critical audio environments. Unlike standard telescoping stands that can become unstable or lose tension at full extension, the STV 60 provides a fixed-length, 600 mm rigid extension. This ensures that your high-end microphones remain perfectly stationary, maintaining precise phase alignment and consistent frequency response throughout long sessions.
 

Product Description

Industrial-Grade Stability at Maximum Height:

Precision-machined from high-quality metal, the STV 60 is engineered to support the weight of Neumann’s heaviest large-diaphragm microphones and complex stereo arrays. Its robust design is optimized to minimize mechanical resonance, ensuring that floor vibrations and stage noise are not transmitted to the microphone capsule, resulting in a cleaner and more professional recording.

Precision Threaded Interface:

The STV 60 features a standard 1/2" threaded connection (male top and female base), allowing it to integrate seamlessly into the Neumann modular stand system. It is designed to be screwed directly between a microphone stand (such as the MF 4 or MF 5) and a swivel mount (such as the SG 21 bk or SG 2). The threads are machined to extremely tight tolerances, providing a rock-solid, non-slip connection.

Discreet and Non-Reflective Finish:

Finished in a professional Matte Black, the STV 60 is designed for visual discretion. Its non-reflective coating is specifically chosen for televised performances, orchestral stages, and film sets where equipment must blend into the background. The finish is scratch-resistant and matches the "black" or "dark" variants of Neumann’s iconic microphone series.

Versatile Extension for Large Spaces:

With a length of 60 cm, the STV 60 offers the greatest reach in the STV series. This makes it particularly valuable for capturing the overhead "bloom" of a symphony orchestra, reaching over a grand piano lid, or providing high-altitude room miking in large acoustic spaces. Its modular nature means it can be used alone or combined with other STV extensions for a completely customized mounting solution.
