Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range

The "Rims" suspension system has established itself as a reference solution to limit the natural choking of a tom caused by overly restrictive mounting. This version with a universal plate follows a practical logic: to offer versatile mounting on many kits and configurations while maintaining the fundamental principles of a suspension that allows the shell to vibrate more freely.

Who This Drum/Instrument Is For

This suspension is intended for drummers from beginners to experts who want to optimize the resonance of their 16-inch tom, whether in rehearsal, studio, or on stage. It is particularly suitable for styles seeking an open and full tom sound (rock, pop, fusion, worship, funk), but it remains equally relevant in more subdued contexts when aiming to preserve the natural response of the shell before refining control with tuning and possible damping.

Questions frequently asked

Is this suspension compatible with a 16-inch tom with 8 lugs?

This model is designed for a 16-inch tom with 8 lugs. Its structure is based on 4 suspension points equipped with isolation rubber mounts.

Is a mounting shell required to install this tom suspension?

The mounting shell is not included. Depending on the shell's shape and thickness, a locking plate or additional washers may be needed.

What are the dimensions of the universal plate?

The universal plate measures 129 x 85 mm.

What effect does it have on the resonance of a 16-inch bass tom?

The 4 suspension points limit mechanical stress on the shell. This allows for freer resonance and better sustain preservation, especially with medium to low tuning. The rubber mounts reduce vibration transfer to the hardware.
