Silencing cymbals
No problem putting them on my 5a sticks.
Don't feel too much heavier after adding them, but there's definately a weight increase.
Not much silencing going on hitting the drums, hence the 2 stars deduction.
But they do work on the cymbals.
Takes away the attack. The initial stick attack is gone, I mean really gone when playing cymbals with these.
I didn't expect that.
This makes hitting cymbals sound like when you make them swell with the sides of your sticks old fashioned style. Even like mini-gongs at the hit.
So keep a pair of sticks with these around, they'll always be usable at some point.
Cheap experimenting this way. But you can forget about the silent drumming.

They add weight to the tips of the drumsticks and do not do much for lowering the noise when striking hard surfaces.
Good thing is that they do not fall off the sticks and they protect hard surfaces that are being striked.
I got them for e drums thinking they would further lower the noise when striking e cymbals but that did not happen.
They add weight on to the tips of the sticks so it kinda changes the feel of the sticks.
I am aware that the silent tips are not meant to be used for e drums but I hoped the would work for that too.
On the other hand, if you like practicing your paradiddles on the kitchen table or elements or when watching tv, they will work ok. In this case the sticks will not damage the hard surfaces that are being striked and will lower the volume of the noise to some degree.
