Hola! Music HPS-101RB Review

The Hola! Music HPS-101RB is a black metal microphone stand built around a round, weighted base. My read of this model is straightforward: it is meant for singers, speakers, podcasters, and general mic placement where you want a clean floor footprint and a stand that is not trying to be ultralight. The recorded model number is Round_Base, and the listed size is Weighted Base, so I would treat stability as the point of the design.

How I’d Think About Setting Up the Hola! Music HPS-101RB

The package dimensions are 91 x 31 x 7 cm, and the listed weight is 4 kg 380 g. That tells me this is not the kind of stand I would buy for stuffing into a small gig bag or moving around casually with one hand full of other gear. I would plan for it as a floor stand that gets carried deliberately and placed where it can stay out of the way.

Because it uses a round base, I’d also think about cable routing before ordering. A stand like this can look neater than tripod legs, but the base still needs clear space around the performer’s feet. If I were pairing it with an XLR microphone, I’d make sure I also had the right microphone clip, shock mount, or holder, plus an XLR cable and a suitable mixer, interface, recorder, or PA input.

Where the Weighted Black Metal Design Makes Sense

The best argument for the Hola! Music HPS-101RB is the combination of metal construction and a weighted round base. For a vocal position, speech setup, rehearsal room, or clean-looking stage arrangement, I’d rather see a round base than tripod legs if the performer does not need extra reach from the side.

The honest limitation is reach and portability. A round-base straight stand is not the first thing I’d choose for miking guitar amps, drums, or seated performers from awkward angles. In those cases, I’d look for a boom-style stand instead. And while the weight helps it stay planted, that same weight makes it less appealing for people who move stands constantly between locations.

Who I’d Tell to Skip It

• I’d skip it if you need the lightest possible stand for frequent transport.
• I’d skip it if your main use is instrument miking where a boom arm gives better placement.
• I’d skip it for very cramped desk or floor setups where a clamp mount or desktop arm would be easier to live with.
• I’d also check your microphone holder needs before ordering, because the stand alone is only part of the setup.
