from 5432 reviewsI bought this snare and I believe it is one of a kind. It’s an amazing drum. The combination of the shell, diameter and depth makes it sing
I wanted to use the 1.6mm hoops available from another manufacturer to replace the hoops on a 1980s Rogers XP10 snare, but found hem to be of insufficient quality, with rough edges. I decided to go with the less appropriate but much higher quality 2.3mm hoops. They look like the original 1.6mm hoops and sound about the same, except for rim shots, which are crisper with the 2.3mm hoops. Overall, I chose quality over accurate restoration with inferior parts.
Been using Remo heads for 50 years, for the simple reason that they have always been consistently excellent !
Nice, zero sound for sure. keeps the wife happy :].
I enjoy this Meini pure alloy custom medium thin ride 22" cymbal.
Looks great and sounds even better.
Great service and good pricing, exactly what I needed for my vintage Ludwig kit
works great, feel great.
Started playing again after a 15 year hiatus. Couldn’t believe when I saw a black dynasonic on the drum center website. I bought my Roger’s in 1981, and it didn’t have the original snare. After 45 years, I found the perfect match. Same logo and everything. Ordered Tuesday and arrived Wednesday. Sounded great right out of the box.
Much quieter than expected while still sounding good and feeling like acoustic drums. Very happy
I bought a sq2 maple kit from dcp couple yrs ago and I’m yrs ago in my 20s had sonor drums i had to part with because i needed cash .I like the sq2 and always been fan German products .huge part living in Wyoming in the country is winter..used stihl chainsaws yrs and German axes..I buy the pro saws made in germany .

I have all drums studio away from house. She doesn’t know bout lot fed ex delivered
Excellent durability and balance. I will definitely incorporate these into my bag for gig!
It's actually incredible! There is so much power, articulation and character to this drum. I bought it to replace a 6 1/2" x 14" Ludwig Olive badge bronze shell I've been using for forty years. This drum is an outstanding replacement. The workmanship, innovation and attention to detail is actually spellbinding and I am in love! There is nothing out there like what Ron Dunnett creates. Just a masterpiece!
Sonor 600 series by far is the best hardware
Perfect! Works great with my meinl marshmallow practice pad
Beautiful looking, very crisp and sensitive. Excellent rim shots etc.
