Novopro PS1XL Moving Head / Podium Stand

Very Good and performant

Great online buying tool and deliver was next day with a handy tracking tool. Brilliant

When it goes up, there are traces left on the metal, a few holes were not large enough to put a screw inside, Used one time ponly so far, so we'll see...

Easy to transport, simple to assemble. and the visual effect is fantastic.

Perfect for my needs and practical

I run a mobile dance business and use several venues and dismantling the frames every time was never going to work so we leave them assembled but have had to make new carrying bags as the ones provided only work flat packed and to be honest they won't last long anyway... maybe put the price up and better bags or give a up-grade option on purchase. the stands are great and going to purchase some more.

They look the business, but very cheap & nasty for the price. You have got to buy better wing-bolts as the ones supplied are so bad, the bags are paper thin made of very low grade cloth (on the first trip one has a hole rubbed in-not tear. That is how cheap it all is). The scrims are the thinnest scrims I have ever known? The metal work is good & they are solid, Note: I use a 15kg moving head on each stand & you still need to anchor the stand at any height, as it will wobble (have to put a bass bin on them). After the next few gigs I will have to buy some decent bags (calling them pro? They should have the same attention to detail as jbl srx, as even the bag is “bulletproof�). You are just buying the metal bit, & some extra rubbish.

Great product. So versatile. All you need out of the box. I gave it 4* as still a slight wobble with my Showtec Phantom 70 Moving Head LED Beam on...only slight, very slight...no danger but would prefer it didn't. I'm told the others do too.

If you were to design stands which needed to be built and dismantled every night, this is exactly what you'd come up with. When they're built, they feel solid and look great and you can pack them into two cases within a few minutes (four bolts). The pack comes with a whole host of accessories - black and white scrims, wing bolts for finger tightening, or alternatives standard bolts if you want to use an electric driver or build them for an installation, mount pole for speakers, ties for your cables and bags. When you get the box delivered you do worry that they're going to be too heavy but they feel fine when they're packed into their bags. The bags rip if you're not careful (as I found out :( ) If you want lights for below them, buy the Cameo FLAT PAR RGB10-IR White as they slot almost perfectly into the gap at the bottom (and even more so if you have angled IEC power connectors).

Podiums are exceptionally popular at the moment and this product from Novopro ticks all the boxes. The podiums are fully adjustable in height and use a secure locking mechanism once you have set the height you require. You get everything you need, black and white scrims, Velcro straps to secure cable to the legs, non-slip pads for the top plate (although I would rather bolt fixtures to the top plate to reduce the chance of them being knocked off - you can do this, there is a central hole in the top plate), two separate carry bags for the poles and top plates - you won't need anything else. The kit is supplied with both bolts and Large Wing Nuts to provide either permanent build or easy on site build - whichever you require. Also supplied is a 35mm adapter which fits to the top plate, allowing you to mount either a speaker or light fixture (with a 35mm top cap fitted) securely to the product. The finish on this product is excellent. I really cannot find any fault with these podiums, they look great and are well priced. Recommended, gets 5 stars.

Things you should know: - product is great - quick & easy to set up - stores flat - comes with 2 carry bags, one for the base and one for the poles and top - heavy product, solid metal base, top and poles - hard to topple over due to heavy wide base - black and white scrims both easy to install and look good Notes: - comes with tophat mount for the top so you can install a speaker on it. It does feel solid and can take the weight on a big speaker but long term I'm not sure if it would last, so I would only recommend using a lightweight speaker on top up to say 12" woofer. Would highly recommend.

Great piece but should have been 7 Feet as that could give nice look with moving heads on the top and speaker to be lower.

A very solid piece of kit. Well made with good joints. Not sure I would put the maximum weighted speaker on it at maximum extension but that's down to individuals to assess. Fits snuggly in the bags with black and white scrims and cable ties to hide cables from whatever you place on the top. Very versatile and can take mirror balls, speakers, moving heads. Would definitely not recommend taking the legs apart as it all fits in the bag and the plastic square ring is a bit fragile which is why I give this kit a 4. Apart from that - an excellent job.

Specifically bought these to compliment my Chalet Freedom Sticks as they were the only kind of podiums that were ideal to have them stand inside without making any modifications.

Great idea by Novopro, once again adding a twist on similar podiums by making them height adjustable, I am currently using mine to support a 40cm Mirror ball on an Equinox Curve bracket. They would have attacted a 5* review but unforunately the 35mm adapter is slightly bigger than 35mm meaning the curve bracket does not fit on it properly.

These are an absolute must buy! great value for money is well built, very sturdy and extremely versatile. I bought a pair and love them. really easy to adjust the height so can change your set up look per event. you get black and white scrims to suit all events too. the white scrims look great with an up light inside. the setup and pack down in minutes and the carry bags make easy transportation.

Very good product, simple and sufficient. The one negative I will say though is not to listen to what it says in the instruction manual for set up. It says to take the inner legs out which I did for the first one and it took 30 minutes to get back. Second one I did it as one and was super easy and hassle free. Not sure why they get you to do that to be honest! Apart from that all good!
