OnStage KSA7500 Universal Second Tier for X-Style Keyboard Stand (for Stacking Keyboards, Electric Pianos, Synths, and Organs, 60 lb Capacity, Adjustable, Nonslip Arms and Feet, Metal, Black)

After looking to replace my 2-tiered stand with a 3-tiered stand and realizing that I was definitely going to lose money doing that, I just happened upon this product. It's On Stage and my stand is actually QuikLok, so I wasn't totally sure if it would work. Plus universal equipment, in my experience, has been universally bad at replicating the quality of a dedicated product. I was very pleasantly surprised though! This extra tier fits very tightly and is extremely sturdy. I saw some bad reviews from people who said it collapsed, but I don't know how that could happen unless the whole stand collapsed or they greatly exceeded the weight limits. It's actually MORE sturdy than the second tier on my stand. And here's the MAJOR benefit: I actually have two 2-tiered stands and a 1-tier stand, all from different manufacturers, and this fits on all 3! That means I can have any configuration of tiers that works for my current setup. This is some of the best money I've spent in a long time. I highly recommend this universal extra tier. WARNING: I ordered two of these and was just about to order a 3rd, when I started looking at the reviews again. As I read them, I realized that there are two different models, and I actually have one of each. I never noticed this because one is on a Z stand and one is on an X stand. It seems that On-Stage, maybe after all the bad reviews, updated their item and kept the same model number. I believe Amazon's photo is of the older version, where the posts connect to the back of the keyboard arms (and probably where the complaints about rust and broken welds come from). The new models connect the posts in the MIDDLE of the keyboard arms (see my photo from another seller). This gives a different experience when it comes to adjusting and how far away the new tier is from the player. I have the back connector on the Z stand and the middle connector on the X stand and that works. If I switch them, the Z stand works okay with the mid connector (a little far away), but the X stand with the back connector does not work at all. The third tier hangs out further than the second, basically in line with tier 1. I still love these. Mine work great in my studio with no problems at all. I'm not sure if I'm going to order my 3rd one from Amazon though since I have no idea what I'll get.

Works good and is sturdy

Arrived quick, no issues with package. It just works, sturdy and tilt, width adjustable. One thing to keep in mind, the width is really set by your stand, this just accommodates that width. With my 44 and 61 key setup, I had to make the width fit the 44 key, meaning my overall setup is now a little higher. For now it didn't bother me, I had to raise it about four inches, maybe in the future I'll look into a stand that allows different width keyboard setups without changing the height, but thats just the simplicity/limitations of an x stand.

This works pretty well as a quick way to add on a second tier to your existing x-frame keyboard stand. It is designed for either square or round stands, which is nice. Instructions are a bit sparse...it's relatively self-explanatory, but you do need to keep a couple basics in mind when installing it, i.e. orientation, tightness, etc. Once installed it is very sturdy and stable on a double-braced x-frame stand. The tier is pretty deep, so you'll need a deep keyboard on the lower level otherwise it's eclipsed by your upper keyboard. Fairly fine adjustment of angle, but it seems to miss a couple "sweet spot" angles that people are probably looking for. All in all, I would say it's a good option for the price to quickly and easily expand your existing stand. For the finer and fussier points, you'll probably want to investigate a new 2-tier stand. I would actually say somewhere between 3.5 and 4 stars.

It took about 4 minutes to set up. Sturdy, sleek, and looks cool. Won't work with other sizes. MAKE SURE you check first.

I was shocked how solid this second tier is. Easy to set up and I can rock away with zero slipping or shaking. Very affordable and high quality. Update after 1 year: The second tier is still solid, no wiggle at all and I've added another unit to create a third tier. So in all, I have two tier extensions on top of a double X stand holding a ~50lb 88 Roland, ~15lb Nord, and a ~10lb synth on the top. Very pleased with these tiers as a stationary at home set up. The only criticism I have is that there isn't the capability to adjust the height so they are spaced a little further apart then I would prefer, but the tilt on the arms allows me to reduce that space. Still holding at 5 stars.

good for the job

I used this to put a Yamaha moxf6 above a 88key controller. Problems: one of the fittings didn’t expand enough to actually secure it in the tubing (1 inch round). I had to wrap it in a quarter inch of wrapping to make it big enough to actually secure. Otherwise it would literally just slide out. The other one was made properly and fit nice and tight (same tubing, same stand). The cross bar in the middle isn’t long enough to go across unless I rotate the arms inward, so their each 20 degrees of center now. Last issue is the little stoppers on the fron that keep the keyboard from sliding off when tilted, are only about .5 - .75 inches high and are slippery plastic. My moxf had a smooth angled bevel on its bottom edge so it was sliding a lot, I had to reduce the tilt to keep it from sliding off.. now only tiling maybe 15 degrees. All in all it works. But it’s not a great product. (Note: I bought mine from Amazon “used like new”) Putting it together would have been easy if the fitting worked and if the crossbar was longer. If the front slide stoppers were rubber and slightly taller it would be much more effective.

Fantastico 2do nivel para teclado, lo use en mi base Hercules KS-120B, por lo que no tuvo problemas en adaptarse, hay que aprender un poco a acomodar bien el nivel para que no quede "levantado" o de lado, pero nada dificil, con un poco de práctica se logra quedar perfecto, es muy resistente y duradero veo que sin problema aguantara muchos años en ambientes duros, no hay ningun pero en comprarlo para los que estan dudando sin duda quedaran satisfechos como yo de la compra. me llego rápido, pague en OXXO.

安定してとても、良い商品です

Very strong and good build quality! Attaches very easily to an x frame and can be taken down fairly quick if needed for transport! It extends in size to hold a range of keys!

J’avais besoin d’installer mon ordinateur, j’aurais tout aussi bien pu installer mon deuxième clavier. Le système d’imbrication est parfait et le tout fixé est très solide. J’ai regardé plusieurs modèles et je ne regrette pas mon achat. Seul petits bémols, le réglage des molette ne permet pas d’avoir un plateau totalement à l’horizontal, c’est soit un tout petit peu trop incliné vers l’arrière ou vers l’avant. Ce qui en soi pour un clavier ne pose aucun problème, mais pour une tablette horizontale comme dans mon cas, j’ai dû rajouter deux petites mousse pour obtenir une surface horizontale parfaite. Néanmoins, la qualité du matériel est au rendez-vous.

Ottimo prodotto ben fatto ma non compatibile con il mio supporto. Peccato
