Interestingly, however, the promotional video seems to focus almost exclusively from the DJs' perspective :confused:
From a personal viewpoint, I think it looks stylish, robust, practical and, dare I say it, absolutely beautiful :thumbs_up:
I can fully understand the public's impressions and think they're well deserved.
Nice piece of kit :D

Slightly of topic (hope you don't mind) :) I have asked them for information on a moving head podium which I know they produce. But they seem a bit shy in getting in touch! :)

How funny i have just spoke to them today they do podiums for the modesty screen which you can see on there site with the potted plants on they are 49 inches high and have a open back i am thinking on ordering two in white to match my stand i think you would need to add a bigger base if you want to move them away from your disco booth cost for a pair in white without the led lighting kit £ 305.00 inc vat delivered.

Thanks very much for your reply Tony. You should get commision from the company! I did think they may not be that stable if there were moving heads on them. I also think they may not be high enough for my requiriements.

You would think there must be a company that produces a podium for moving heads (I am not that keen on the truss type) I know that Ultimax are working on one, but have been for a long time.

Might be a new venture for you there Tony!

I agree they are very well made and looks stunning in white i just have a led bar sitting behind mine so can select any color to match the wedding color theme ,am now going to add a pair of podiums same design to put either side of stand

There are lots of other options ,if you don't like the truss option i have seen some made out of Checker plate that gives a shiny metal solid truss you can buy it on line quite cheap and of course you can use tripods DJ Standz do a top fixture for moving heads and you can add a scrim you can also use a single aluminum pole with a heavy metal base if you want that minimal look.

Thanks Tony. It is a work in progress for me at the moment. I would like something (possibly in white) that I can uplight. I do like the DJ Standz option. I may have to purchase a couple and modify them.

I like it a lot but I prefer the Equinox screens that I have to be honest.
Ok, the DJ Standz cut out the need for an Ultimax or something like that but I can create the same look with the screens I have.

The look is nothing that can't be achieved on the deckstand booth v2 yet rather than having to slot everything and bolt everything like you do on the DJstandz MB1 and has a flimsy top section that can be bent when people lean on it the deckstand booth v2 just folds out simple and easy and is built for life on the road.

Here a pic of one in a similar design but on a Deckstand Booth V2... We can also do that design in acrylic panels rather than aluminum which is cheaper and just as robust but available in many different colours and means the look and design of the booth can be as unique and bespoke as you want it to be. ;)

At what cost,i would guess a lot more than £ 550 inc vat than the one in the picture but i am pleased to see that the DSB is taking on a new modern look as the serge cloths with or without Leds are now looking rather dated IMHO i have not found the top shelf flimsy and can assemble the MB1 a lot faster than my DSB and takes up very little room in my van.

Cost wise it depends on design and material (acrylic or aluminum etc...) but to be fair it's not that much more expensive than the other covering we offer in the range. We should have a few different designs at the DJ Demo Day at coalville on the 10th Feb for people to have a look through. We've always said we are happy to do different designs rather than the wool serge cloths but that's what most people go for.

Speed of setup wise they must have changed the design then as the last time i saw it put together all the parts were individual and you need to slot and bolt bits in - but guess it's like any stand - the more you do it the quicker you get and the easier it gets.

Would definitely be interested to see the acrylic panels on a DSB.

There are now no bolts and it comes in three parts and two knobs to do up takes 2 minutes ,you still have not indicated what the price for the complete set up in the picture including the v2 to me it looks like it is a very close copy of the Dj Standz MB1 which has been around for quite a while certainly before your one came out.

Really glad they have improved the setup of it - it was a nightmare before and from their pics on the website it looks like more than 3 parts to me but again that could be an old photo.

Also going back to an earlier point on the top section not being suitable for mobile dj use... event on their website they state "Please note these screens are not designed to take any weight." How many times do we get drunk guests coming up to us

Finally please check your facts on trying to suggest we have copied the MB1. I think you'll find DJstandz used to be a distributor for AED back in the early days of the original deckstand booth pro as they didn't have ANY full size stands only their CDJ stands and small bits like that. Then along pops their MB1 around a year or 2 later - funny that.

Price wise i haven't got the costs at hand as not in the office today but it wont be as cheap as the MB1. At the end of the day t depends what people are looking for. If they want a stand that looks like that and that's it.. go for the MB1 (although go and see it in the flesh and test it out first) but if you want a stand that can have the frontage that is only limited by your own imagination and can be changed at any time to keep up with trends in the market or for different type of functions then you are better off paying the extra and going with the deckstand Booth v2 or the micro deckstand booth depending on what size you are looking for.

It would seem that the only time you pop up is to slag other company's products off that may be in direct competition with yours really not on considering your a moderator,i thought that the equipment review section was for members who have owned the equipment under discussion and were passing on there thoughts to share with other members (sticky) no one is saying that it is a better our inferior product to yours and as you have admitted that your comments are based on what you have read or seen on a video they have no bearing on the discussion ,again and not for the first time very unprofessional :(

I may not post on every single topic on the forum but it doesnt mean im not around reading the topics on the forum - I only post when I feel I have something to say that hasn't already been said or if i have the knowledge required that will help or add to the discusion - in this case it was to give an opinion on the stand and compare it to a similar product - all be it one I have involvement with.

At the end of the day you were the one that brought the dsb into this not me in your second post of the topic. And although you posted this topic in the review section, your first post and to some extent your second post wasnt a review - more of a discussion. So if anything the only thing wrong is I didnt move this whole topic from the review section in the first place.

Finally (and not for the first time in this topic) please check your facts before posting. I have seen the mb1in the flesh a few times now since it's release at a number of nadj and seda shows so my opinions are not purly based on websites and videos - although as it happens djstandz own comments on their own website backs up my comments regarding the top angled section - that its flimsy and cant take any weight and the videos and demonstrations of it being setup have so far shown it to not be as quick and easy to setup as is suggested.

If you do still have an issue with my comments or any other moderators comments at any time please feel free to contact another moderator - its why theres not just one.

Yes i did mention the DSB in only regarding the public comments regarding the Dj Standz ,yes the top part angled section is a add on and what they are saying is it wont take the weight of equipment so you are rather out of context.To be honest i don't think you realize your doing it look at your comments regarding the XPRS Console you were straight in there pointing out the merits of the DSB against the XPRS set up time and some other garbage i know you are a advertiser but i think its not right that whenever any member posts or mentions anything about a dj stand you just cant sit back without putting in your two pennys worth ,it would seem Gear For Djs know how to conduct themselves,but then again just my opinion but your not doing yourself any favors in trade circles and i wont mention it anymore.

I like these stands and for the price they are pretty good. It is what the client thinks and i think this would be greeted with generally good comments, although it could look a bit clubby in a ceremony for example? I prefer my equinox booth for the price and it fits in anywhere, but the on Tony has asked for opinions on looks nice.

one of the best booths I have seen is my friends Ashley Riggs one. its a modified version of the booths on the Pioneer stand at BPM I think?
Too bulky for my requirements. Cleaning kids finger prints would also get on my nerves. this is demonstrated in the second pic :D
