Stand for Xm8500

[Kabom]

So, 

 

 

Would this stand work together with the XM8500?

 

Or, if you got a better solution please list it below.

It should, the clip on the stand appears to be compatible with the body of the XM8500, but be warned that you get what you pay for. If it's ever in your budget I highly recommend getting the Rode PSA1.

Maybe a bit over my budget. 

 

Do you got any other recommendations?

The one you listed will be decent with your mic as it's a smaller and lighter microphone. My main complaint with a similar inexpensive arm was that it would sag under the weight of my blue yeti which is a very heavy mic. This said, the arm you posted should be fine as a starter arm especially considering it matches the cost of the XM8500.

I don't think that one would be much better (if at all) than the original one you posted.

I have it and it holds my blue snowball just fine. i'd put something about the weight of a yeti on this and Id say it would probably hold. Good enough for his cheap mic.

I guess I'm a bit spoiled with the PSA1. The cheaper alternatives definitely do work though you do need to be more careful when adjusting them.

Anyways, if it isn't good enough I can just return it and save up for some better stuff. 

 

This was what I ultimately bought:
