    This kit sounds amazing. I owned a seven-piece Sonor 3005 fushion which I purchased from new in 2006 in Sunburst Fade. The toms were 8", 10", 12", and 14" and 16" floor toms. The cymbals I had were; Sabian AAXplosion 16", 18" and 22" Stage Ride, plus a 14" Sabian Stage Crash. i played many gigs and the maple really made a difference, as the kit I had before that was a basswood Pearl Export 6-piece which I bought in 1996 also from new. It had Pearl 502 cymbals, which sounded rich and resonant.
    I'm seriously checking out an AQ2 right now as my new kit as I had to sell the Sonor 3005 when I moved to Scotland two years ago.

    Had a Sonor from 1969 till 1974. loved it Great Jazz set. quartet toi big band always ready for a great sound.. living in a Condo so aucoustic set is not a good Idea with neighbors. So switched to Roland but if I owned another House Sonor set will be first on my list.Of course nothing better to have the variety of Ziljians to make it. Nice video great sound.

    I've got my AQ2 set tuned low and 14 inch snare tuned high. The 12 inch side snare tuned low with lose snares. When you tune the 8 inch tom high there is to mutch attack and sounds like you hit him twice as hard. I like the rim shots of the 14 inch snare high tuned. I only have a little gel on my top. I don't know how it sounds when you mic it. That's the next step. Still impressed of the natural sound.

    Best bang for the buck for sure
    But lets be honest... its not even a franction of how good an sq2 sounds ;)
    Because they are the best drums on the planet and there is a reason that they cost 6K more than the aq2
    But still with some mixing the aq2 is suuuuuupper dope
    Had it liked it but sold it because i got a delite kit

    I seriously hope the SQ2 sound better. My AQ2 kit was terrible out of the box, the bearing edges were so bad I had to have them re-cut. The only way I could get the heads to seat was to crank the hell out of them. The re-cut solved the issue. There were also a few small issues with the hardware but nothing I can’t live with. Be aware, you’re getting a Chinese (or wherever) made kit & quality control is a roll of the dice. As always, you get what you pay for.

      Hey there! There's some similarities like the smart tom mounting system, pure tone and having a wide tuning range.. There's also some HUGE differences like the wood as you mentioned. The german craftsmanship is like no other.. As you can see, I'm rocking stock heads in this video and the drums STILL sound amazing. Thanks for watching!

    Hi just ordered the studio kit. 20 10 12 and 14. I dont gig and play in small space but added an 8 rack and 13 floor tom. I have to trigger and mesh head this kit with my 2 box module for a few months til I move into a house or rent studio space but What acoustic heads would you put on it tops and bottoms. You may be sponsored by Aquarian but I am open to Remo or Evans as well.
