Got a great deal on ebay as well. I LOVE mine as well- I have a shock mount, and lets the mike swing in and out as I need it- much easier than when I was using a desktop stand.

I got mine a bit cheaper over at BSW USA: http://www.bswusa.com/proditem.asp?item=PL2T I found it after looking around at all the other ones that needed to be screwed into my desk and I couldn't do that with my particular (Ikea!) desk. There is also a "riser" for it ( http://www.bswusa.com/proditem.asp?item=RS1 )that would elevate it over the monitors (except maybe yours! :-) but it seems that the riser needs to be screwed in instead of using the C-clamp.

What I also like about this one is that it has a ridge (sort of like a spine) that runs the whole length of it that you can insert the microphone cable into so that it is hidden and not hanging tout all over the place I do use a shock mount that came with the microphone.

I got mine for $95.00 at the Dayton HamVention. Here is Heil's own website price of $99 .. http://www.heilsound.com/amateur/pl-2t_ham.htm The Model number to search is PL-2T. It's a great boom! Holds my MXL770 just fine and keeps it where I want it.
