I've been Dancing for about 14 years, mostly tap and I have never been disappointed by Capezio. and the shoes your looking at are a tad tight of a fit. so go a half size larger, and of course always try them on, as you probably know.
If the sound isn't "crisp" enough for you, loosen the two screws closest to the sole on the toe tap, and on the heel loosen the two closest to the sole. Just make sure they aren't sticking out from your shoe. But it does help with the sound really well, but if you do let them stick out to much it will damage the floor your dancing on.
Hope this helps!
