I am ready to invest money in my drum set-up again and the next logical step seems to be hardware. I want to get rid of all the single-cymbal stands and fit a lot of stuff in to a smaller space. First of all, I want to get the rack toms off of my bass drum. Secondly, in addition to hi-hats and a ride, I want to have room for 3 crashes, a splash, a china, and one more auxiliary cymbal (probably just a zil-bell).
To get the rack toms off of my bass drum, I am thinking about two DW9000-series double-tom stands (one for each tom). The other arm of each would be free for cymbal mounting. I would then require some attachments (dog bones?, boom arms?) to attach the needed cymbals to the stands.
I have never been too knowledgeable about hardware so I would like to inquire of the minds more knowledgeable than mine here at DrummerWorld regarding it.What would be the best way to make a neat cymbal/tom set-up that leaves a small footprint? How much money should I spend (should I always go for the 9000 vs. the 3000 for example) I would just like to know what you guys think.
Thanks
