Studio Gear Question: Avenger D600 or Matthews Baby Boom Which One & Why?
Apr 5, 2017 14:28:39 #
I've already decided on a Matthews Hollywood Baby Jr. Triple Riser Stand but I'm left in a quandary on picking the Avenger D600 boom or the Matthews Baby Boom. There's about $100 difference but I don't see any obvious benefit to the Matthews since both of them have a steel construction. The Avenger in fact has a hook for a counterweight yet the Matthews doesn't, mind you, that can be fixed with a clamp on counterweight.
I realize recommendations are naturally inclined towards users ownership, but I'd greatly appreciate if anyone can point out an obvious difference I've overlooked that might account for the $100.00 spread. I don't mind spending a little more for advantages. I buy correctly one.

I doubt you would notice any difference in using them, as they are closely matched, both are top notch in quality, can't go wrong which ever one you choose!

Thanks for you words. I guess I'm going to have to phone B&H and ask them. I read on Matthews that there might be an issue pairing with other brands.
