MICROPOINT HEAVYHATS

Brass weights on top of gear add 50% to the good effect of Heavyfeet. we strongly recommend them to anyone using footers, particularly ours.

HeavyHat brass weights are available in ¾ and 1½ pound versions; they use the same selected-by-ear alloy as our footers. Where you place them and how many you use makes a big difference; overdamping with too much weight sounds bad. That’s why we recommend starting with a three-weight set, two small and one large.

Micropoint HeavyHats are our very best sounding brass weight, based on Mapleshade's three-point principle for most distortion-free vibration transfer. Newly upgraded to our much more resonance-free Micropoint design—thus yielding beautiful gains in bass clarity, harmonic richness, and dynamic nuance. Two weights on each speaker is a must-hear upgrade!
