Professional Broadcast Boom Mount
The Heil Sound PL2T is a professional articulating microphone mount designed for studio and broadcast environments. It uses balanced internal springs to hold a microphone securely while allowing quiet, precise repositioning. The arm suits podcasters, voice-over artists and radio engineers who need reliable overhead placement. A hollow channel with removable top and back plates lets you route the microphone cable neatly along the boom.
Straightforward Desk Installation
Mounting uses the included standard C clamp which grips surfaces up to 1.5" thick without permanent modification. Removable panels on both boom sections give clear access for threading cables before the arm is tightened into position. The only common issue is forgetting to reinstall both panels after wiring, which leaves the channel exposed. No tools beyond the clamp handle are required for a secure fit.
Handles Standard Studio Microphones
The mount supports microphones weighing up to 3.5 lb (1.6 kg) on its 5/8"-27 thread stud, covering most large-diaphragm dynamics and condensers used in broadcast. Heavier broadcast dynamics with external shockmounts can exceed this limit and will sag despite the balanced springs. Lighter microphones and standard shockmounts stay firmly positioned through the full range of articulation.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the PL2T boom is balanced correctly after mounting my microphone?
With the microphone attached, the arm should stay exactly where you place it without drifting up or down, and the internal springs should move silently when you reposition it.
What comes in the box with the PL2T and what extra parts might I need?
The package includes the articulating boom arm and a C clamp for surfaces up to 1.5" thick. You will need to supply a 5/8"-27 threaded shock mount or mic clip.
Which PL2T version should I choose for a microphone weighing 3.5 lb?
The single PL2T model supports microphones up to 3.5 lb (1.6 kg), so no alternative version is required for that weight.
