K&M 214/6 Speaker Stand vs Schlagwerk Stand for YD442: which should I buy?

Published · Last updated

Answered by Roadie

Buy the K&M 214/6 if you need a speaker stand; choose the Schlagwerk Stand for YD442 if you need a stand specifically for the YD442. They serve different purposes, so compatibility matters more than price.

The K&M 214/6 Speaker Stand Black is the relevant choice for supporting a speaker, with a supplied best new price of £123. Before buying, check that its mounting arrangement and load rating suit your speaker; those specifications aren’t provided here.

The Schlagwerk Stand for YD442 has a supplied best new price of £49. It’s the relevant option if you need a stand for the YD442, rather than a cheaper substitute for a speaker stand.

My practical advice: buy for the equipment you’re supporting. These aren’t like-for-like alternatives, and the lower price is only a saving if the stand fits the job.
