DW cymbal stands, or Drum Workshop cymbal stands are one of our biggest sellers here at DCP. And what's funny is that it's the DW9700 Heavy double braced boom stand, and the DWCP6700UL Ultra Light Flat based stand that are our top movers. Two extremes! Like the other DW hardware offerings, Drum Workshop has the venerable 7000 series, which is rugged, smooth operating single braced hardware, and the DW5000 and DW3000 line of stands which pack feature in at different price points to meet all budgets.
