I recently started using a pair of PZM's in addition to overheads. I'm using a pair of Blue Dragonfly's for overheads but I was trying to achieve an overall bigger sound than what I was getting. The PZM's were just the trick I needed. I mount them about 6 feet in front of the kit spaced about 5-6 feet apart at roughly hte same height as the rack toms. Gives me alot more options when mixing drums and fills out the overall drum track. My room is a decent size but the ceiling is very low (around 7.5 ft). Low ceilings are hard to work with but the PZM's really help.
