Now, even the AQX series, which is the entry-level - I mean just looking at it, you can tell. They go for the price of a professional club outfit most working drummers would invest in to gig around, and are marketed towards kids!

      I do not play sonor. I play DW but I have been saying this forever when people talk about their $700 drum set sounds as good as. A sonor or a DW TO ME YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR IF YOU BUY A $700 DRUM SET THERE’S A REASON WHY IT ONLY COST THAT MUCH NO MATTER HOW GOOD YOU THINK THE SOUND IS BY CHANGING THE HEADS OFF PUTTING POUNDS OF MOON ON IT AT THE END OF THE DAY IT’S A $700 DRUM SETcheap wood cheap build cheap hardware equals cheap sound

    Always admired the way that Germans obsess over quality. The ways the can unite the high tech with old world craftsmanship is stunning. Sonor drums are the epitome of "you get what you pay for". They're not drums you need, they're drums you covet. Thank you for the glimpse into that special company.

I was in Germany in 86, 87 bought a Black lacquer Sonor light everything from the Factory I'm glad I made the Rock choice over the Bobinga sIgnature even thought it was a super hard choice. I love the Birch sound then, and I still love it now. It plays exactly as the first day I bought it. I love my kit, Danke, Danke schon Karl and to all at Sonor Drums, wonderful people!!! Jared I envy your trip what an experience you had and mine in 87 such a memory I will never forget.

      @@markomarkovic5729 Designers are great as well, but Id say theyre on par with SQ2, depending on your specs etc. I think of SQ2 as pretty much the same series, but with modernized hardware and a new name, with more customization options etc. Theyre very similar in quality. Cant go wrong with either. The strange thing with Hilites for me is, that I havent been able to find any other kit that replicate that sound. Its quite unique.

    My favorite drums in the world. That I will never have a chance to play or own. Quality like nothing else. They have the best way to make shells. undersize them for better tonal range. Outstanding
