Wondering if anyone can help me.Want to expand my drum set.But do i get 10" or 14"? As currently mine is 12" & 13". And where is the best place to buy? i also need rhe holder and clamp for it.
 
Hi, i suppose if your 12" and 13" are high and mid toms, you should look at the classifieds for ppl selling 14" or 16" floor toms, some as low as $40 :)
 
Agree with edrummer. go for a 16" or more if your two existing toms are not floor toms because this gives you a lower,deeper tone, and therefore there will be a more significant difference when you hit a 12" and a 16" as compared to if you get a 14". Then again, if it is merely for practice or you have space constraints, you could always choose otherwise.

And yup classifieds like the drums buy and sell section have good deals coming up sometimes. better to be patient and get a good deal haha, rather than going to some commercialised music store and perhaps overpaying. You might want to get a tom that matches your set though.

Good luck choosing a tom! =)
