Thank you all for your help!
I'm glad I won't need to buy the extra long clamp and tribars.

Maybe I'll get the new silver model + microphone adapter.

The mic boom is super. It's one less thing to have to cart around. Once you attach it, it can stay along the inner edge of the stand. Defiinitely are must for any Apex owner.

It looks nice, has some kool features but for every day gigging I still dont trust it .....plus when sitting and playing the middle bar blocks my vision to the audience especially with a second tier w/Laptop or other gear etc...good luck

I've actually dedcided to keep my Ultimate Support Apex Stand (at least for now). I continue to aprreciate it for its impressively sleek onstage appearence, especially complimentary with the Tyros.

I myself have found no problems with stability when performing.

I primarily reserve the Apex stand for larger venue stage performance, as for the daily quick gigs, it's more of a hassle to transport than my Quicklok stand is. I find the Apex offers the most impressive pro presentation. My main critism with the Apex is that, because I rely on using a 4 pedal foot controler box unit, it's not possible to solidly position the foot pedal unit so it can be anchored and secured (perpendicular to my feet) and to the stand's legs (to keep it from sliding). The other thing with this stand, is that, to avoid your head being obscured (from the audience) by the center column, one must be either standing, or seated on an elevated stool, when performing.

Sorry to ask it again... GlennT, do you use the standard bars with your SD1?

I really want to be sure that the standard bars will be OK, otherwise I'll buy the Apex with the long bars.

Thanks in advance

Could you please tell me what package are you talking about? Are you refering to "Apex Plus"?

There isn't a "Apex Plus" on the silver edition...

Thanks

Sorry but I'm not understanding...

Apex Plus is the package with the Super bars and the mic boom in adition to the Stand?

Or there is a package with Mic Boom and Super bars only, to add to an Apex Stand?

Thanks again.
