In the 8 years since I posted in this thread, I've changed my mind.
I posted back then that 18's were my favorite, but I was just getting back into picking up drumming then.
20's have taken the place of 18's for me.
I always used a riser with an 18, so there was no height difference for tom mounting.
I can get a lower pitch with a 20, and the difference isn't as far from a 22 as the difference is between the 18 and 20.
I have heard some 18's that sound great, but they've all been videos that most likely had a lot of processing.
I still like the concept of an 18, but when it comes to actually putting money down for a set, I now put it on the 20.
