The choice is yours to make. Do you want a lower pitched floor tom or a slightly-higher pitched one? The taller the drum (up and down) the more projection it has...it also slightly alters the pitch. The wider the drum the lower in pitch it is. A taller tom you will have to hit harder to vibrate the other head so it will ring and the longer its note will be.

A floor tom is a part of a drumset that can either stand on the floor or attach to a cymbal stand. The most common sizes are 16 x 16, 14 x 14, and 18 x 16.
