Sonor AQ2: Maple shell with TuneSafe.
All drums in the AQ2 Safari set are made of seven plies of maple. Three plies of Canadian maple are wrapped by two plies each of Asian maple in the front and back. This results in a warm and focused tone with a deep fundamental character and high dynamics. The Bass Drum measures 7.2 mm, Tom and snare only 5.8 mm. This contributes significantly to the balanced and resonant sound. In addition, the individual layers are cross-glued at a 90° angle, the shell remains completely tension-free. The tensioning lugs are all equipped with the Sonor TuneSafe system. The exact 45° shell burr also allows for easy tuning and perfect head contact and additionally focuses the sound.
Unique: Sonor Smart Mount
The Toms of the Sonor AQ2 series are suspended using the Smart Mount system. This innovative mounting system for drums was manufactured by Sonor in Germany and impresses with its minimalist design and high functionality. The suspension has only two points of contact with the drum shell and allows it to vibrate freely and unhindered. A suspension rail is incorporated in the Sonor Smart Mount System directly into the tensioning bracket and in addition, a high-quality buffer made of hard rubber between the shell and rail ensures pronounced resonance and balanced sustain.
