Comments about Pearl Optimount Tom Mounting System:
I have these mounted on 10", 12", 13", 14", and 16" rack toms on a Pearl Export Select kit. The tuning is so much better than with the ISS mounts. It seems the ISS mounts pressed against the batter head edge forcing them out of tune. I have the upgraded version of these on my Pearl Reference kit also. A+
Comments about Pearl Optimount Tom Mounting System:
This in my opinion is the best tom mounting bracket anywhere. I have been on a quest for the best Tom mounts. I currently have a DW kit and swapped out for the Opti-Mounts because they do not subtract from the total tone of the toms. I have them on me 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 inch toms You can hear the difference in the recordings. It's worth the time and effort
Comments about Pearl Optimount Tom Mounting System:
I have a 6pc set of Pearl Prestige Session Elites which are approximately 10 yrs old, but in excellent condition. I have replaced all old I.S.S. mounts with the new optimounts. However, I cannot find an optimount to fix my 14 inch tom-tom. the lugs are spaced just a little too far apart. But if you have a newer set, these mounts work great and the stability of the mounts are great also.
Comments about Pearl Optimount Tom Mounting System:
I bought the pearl Optimount for my 16x16 floor tom. I thought I would be a better idea to mount it off of a stand rather than the floor for more resonance. Somehow I was wrong. The tom lost almost all of its sustain and turned into a dull, empty thud. I tried an ISS mount and had the same results. Even after I re-finished my kit (strip off the wrap, walnut stain, 5 coats lacquer, new heads, split the lugs, inserted nylon washers) the optimount still made it sound bad. I went back to the traditional floor tom legs and the problem was fixed. So now my floor tom sounds really good, and I have an extra optimount just sitting around. (In case you are wondering, I have a pearl export kit from the mid 90's, the shells are mahogany, I have coated emperors on the top and clear ambassadors on the bottom.) All in all, it didn't work at all for my drum set, I was kind of disappointed, but the results might not be the same for a maple kit.
