I've been drumming for over thirty years and have always avoided the "ball socket" mounts as they tend to sag after setting, immediately and over playing time. These were a good measurement for my reconfigured set, and Gibraltar makes solid stuff, so I took a chance. Nope. It is superior to other products I've seen, but drops immediately, and sags with playing. Maybe if you wrench it tight it will hold. But this is extreme, will mar the bolt wings, poor Zen, and counter to my senses. Go for the L-bracket if you want security. If you don't, definitely pick up the SC-BUMP rubber rim pads, because the toms will be resting on your bass drum soon enough.
