DescriptionYamaha YCHS7106 Chime Stand (6 Tubes) offers a compact, professional solution for smaller chime setups and custom configurations. Designed for use with Yamaha’s YCHT7100 Series tubes, this stand supports up to six chime tubes securely while maintaining the same precision damping performance found on full-size orchestral frames. It is ideal for concert percussionists, educators, and ensemble directors who need a portable yet high-quality stand for selective chime ranges.Performance and FunctionalityThe YCHS7106 is engineered to deliver stable performance and broad expressive range. It features the same damper board dimensions as the larger YCHS7118 model, ensuring consistent touch and damping response across Yamaha’s professional chime line. Because of this design continuity, players can transition between stands without adjusting their technique or pedal feel.The damper mechanism effectively controls resonance by preventing excessive tube movement when struck. This allows clear articulation and smooth transitions from pianissimo to fortissimo dynamics. As a result, performers can achieve greater expressive control and precise timing when stopping sustain, producing a more polished and musical performance.Design and CompatibilityThe YCHS7106 Chime Stand accommodates up to six tubes from the YCHT7100 Series, including longer tubes from the extended tonal range such as YCHT7149A, YCHT7150A#, and YCHT7151B. This versatility allows players to customize their chime setup for specific repertoire or compact stage requirements. Although smaller in size, the stand retains Yamaha’s hallmark stability and strength, providing a reliable base for both rehearsal and performance.Built with robust materials and precise craftsmanship, the frame maintains secure support while allowing free vibration of each chime tube. The compact structure makes it especially convenient for school percussion rooms, touring ensembles, or auxiliary setups where space efficiency is essential. In addition, the elegant design aligns with Yamaha’s orchestral aesthetic, blending seamlessly with full-range chime models.Key FeaturesCompact chime stand for up to six tubesCompatible with Yamaha YCHT7100 Series chime tubesIdentical damper board dimensions to the YCHS7118Prevents excessive tube motion for smooth, even dampingSupports wide dynamic range from pp to ffAccommodates longer tubes (YCHT7149A, YCHT7150A#, YCHT7151B)Durable frame with stable support and easy handlingIdeal for compact performance spaces and educational settingsMore InformationFor more like this, view our Concert Stands collection.
