The MKII lets you get your mic right into where the action is without having to fashion some form of makeshift mounting method. Whether you want your D112 flush with your sound source, or set at an angle, the MKII lets you find the perfect positioning with ease.
D112 MKII Reviews
"Now this is what I call a kick drum sound - not only can you hear the bass, you can hear the impact of the beater, and almost feel the rush of air coming from the drum. This is an excellent kick drum sound with all the elements well in place - anything you don't want can be EQ'd out." - Audio Masterclass D112 MKII Review
"...the new stand mount is a big improvement on the original design and should ensure the solid and consistent sound that has made the D112 an industry standard." - Audio Media International D112 MKII Review
