Hello there!
I answered to an add about a used PDP FS kit and the seller agreed to hold it for me until feb 18th, so if he doesn't go all mean on me I'll be getting a new kit in about 3 weeks.
Anyways, it's in fusion sizes with a 14" floortom that I thought I'd mount on a cymbal stand, just for the look and to clear the floorspace a little bit. But I'm not really that experienced in different tom-mounts, I've always used the ones that have come with whatever kit I've played. Wich one would you pick?
Pearl IS? http://www.thomann.de/se/pearl_is1216s_tomhalter.htm
Pearl Optimount? http://www.thomann.de/se/pearl_opt13...unt_halter.htm
Tama Star Cast-thingy? http://www.thomann.de/se/tama_14_star_cast_halter.htm
Gibraltar USS? http://www.thomann.de/se/gibraltar_s...ion_system.htm
Sonor? http://www.thomann.de/se/sonor_tar14_6_rims.htm
The Optimounts look like they're the sturdiest since they look like they have a bigger grip on the drum, but I'm not sure if any of these are better, The Sonor one do look more like the mounts that are on the tom toms so that one would be better for the looks I guess. But look isn't everything though, I have don't have much experience with different Sonor hardware, bit I know that the quality of Pearl and especially Gibraltar is well appreciated around these forums.
I'm sure most of you have experiences with at least some of these mounts, maybe not on a 14" floortom, but at least on something so please help me decide this little thing
