Just wondering what type of stand to use for a deep snare? Like maybe an eight inch or maybe even a ten inch. Deepest snare I have right now is five and a half and my snare stand is as low as it goes.
Thanks in advance

I've got the flat base DW stand, I would think it would work (i think its the 7300) I goes real short with the legs extended

How low do you keep your snare......I have a Pearl stand that Iuse with my
8" deep Superten without any height issues. But Iam 6'4" and sit pretty high I suppose.
I sit pretty low I guess, and I like my drums low. The reason I am asking is I am going to check out a ten inch deep snare and don't want to have to get a stand just for this snare. I have an old flat base snare stand I could maybe use.
How about this one?
I sit fairly low I guess ( legs at a 45 ) and even a 6.5 can be a little
high with either Yamaha or Tama baskets.

Sitting too low can eventually do damage to your knees. Just passing on what I have read about proper posture behind the drum kit...........I sit knees below hips about 4-5 inches..........

And your back too! I use a throne with a backrest and I sit kind of high compared to most people.....but then again I am 6'4".....Cool Dude
Also I'm probably one of the last guys out there that play heel down all the time, so sitting high helps me a bit with that.

Me, too! That's why the SpeedKing works so well for me. It was almost designed for heel-down players. I also sit up high since I slipped the L-5/S-1 disc in my back a few years ago.Violin
Where I grew up, the "proper" technique for bass drum pedal work was taught as being heel-down. Of course, nowadays, anything is proper. It's all good!

Ya but NO ONE my age does this method anymore! I guess I'm just old school....born in the wrong time I guess
Woa, that must be why I am having problems with my right knee!! Never thought there was a designated sitting height. How far below should your knees be below your hips?
