Astatic D-104 Microphone Stem / Gooseneck Stand Assembly with attached cable and Amphenol 80MC2M 2-pin plug

This allows use of a D-104 head on a standard black cast base and either a gooseneck or straight pipe. This is what was used on vintage gear with non amplification D-104s.

The 80MC2M mic connectors are getting hard to find and are a bit expensive alone.
