Hi Leslie:
Because of where you put your stand, I see your point about the AM
stand, especially if you have a cat! However, the one you bought will not
fit in the MB7 case as mine does. I only use it on the floor; if the horn
does get dumped, I don't want it falling any distance.
Cheers and happy holidays,

I actually purchased the stand you are considering but decided against using
it once I spotted this one:

I like this because of its simplicity; I also like it because it seems
sturdier than the other variety, i.e., more of the surface area of the stand
sits on the floor/hard surface. The other one proved precarious because I
was placing it on top of a wooden music cabinet that was barely larger than
the stand and I worried about it getting dislodged and my horn falling off.
I also think the other one looks so...transformer like (those toys that used
to transform into things). Just seems so macho, so overkill. But that's just
me!
Good luck,
Leslie
