Does it come with a ball-head-like mount, or it has to be purchased separately? It's not clear from the description... Thank you!

I already had tripod and didn't have to buy anything else. There was no ball head like mount. It fits just like a camera or camcorder would to tripod.

A ball head is not included. I purchased one separately, afraid you will have to do likewise. One will add a lot of flexibility in setting up / aiming your iPad.

Yes. It has a standard thread mount. I use alternate heads on it all the time.

Yes it does come with the mount and it is better than somewhat good. I would call it great. Much louder and clearer than my last one.

It requires a ball head, or some sort of screw on tripod head, which is not included with the slider

HI. I'm a consumer who purchased this last winter. Yes, the picture is wrong. It does not include the GPS holder as you say. With all the models out their, one purchases that separately. However, it does include all the other mounting hardware including the ball. Although expensive, it works much better than the cheaper mount I had before. I can manipulate the direction much easier with this one.

It is just a round disc on the bottom; I believe it is dedicated to this mount I don't thin it is the same size as the original. I could be wrong, however. Wish I could be more accurate, but I long ago lost the original mount.

No, you'll need one of the ball-mounts. I used a diamond-base mount that came with hardware.

No it does not have a ball head but it has a very fluid feel to it and works great on my Redfield scope great tripod for the price you can't hardly beat it I've seen more expensive ones not work as well as these do

Yes, it is a ball and socket type mount. The ball has a threaded end that screws into the back of the speaker and the socket end can be attached to the wall with 4 screws (not included). A hand-turned knob applies tension to the ball when you have found the right angle to aim the speaker.

Yes you need to purchase a head for this tripod. And i only use it for still photography and i purchased a $85 ball head and it works amazing. And this tripod is a musy buy.

Yes, the ball head unscrews from the top of the tripod and can be mounted on any tripod (or monopod) that has a quarter-inch mounting stud. This is fairly standard for a "mini" ball head. Some tripods use a 3/8" stud; there are $5 adapters available that are 3/8" female on one side (to screw on the 3/8" tripod stud) and 1/4" male on the other (upon which to install this ball head). Going the other way, if you want to install a heavier-duty ball head with a 3/8" socket on this tripod, you'll need a different adapter that is 3/8" male on the outside (to screw into your heavier head) and 1/4" female on the inside (to mount on this tripod).

Heads up! Mine only came with one mount. I now need to order another one... ugh.

Yes. My mini-pro Slik III came with the ball head (a shown). My brother-in-law bought a Slik mini that came with a regular rectangular mount that turns and is adjustable, but I do not like it as much as the ball head. (So, if you want the ball head, order this one.) I came home yesterday from a two week Alaska trip. I used it with my Nikon 18-300mm lens (which is heavy), resting the tripod agaist my chest. That stabilization was wonderful - loved it!

It came with it's own, a 3/8" bolt I believe with a cap. The only issue is that the part that rests against the wall is about 8", so it may overhang if your existing mount was shorter.

The last section is a ball that's screwed onto the suction cup base. It's not really compatible with anything else other than this specific base. Check rammount.com, they have a closeup picture of this specific mount and you can see it in more detai.
