I own this kit and it’s not an entry level kit, don’t let the size fool you. I bought it after I heard someone playing it in a shop and couldn’t believe what was coming out of it with stock heads. This is a $900 shell pack and recording you would think I was playing a full size kit that sounds fantastic. I did upgrade the floor tom to a 14” though and run Remo heads. The build quality and sound are absolutely great

Nice review! I'd love to see a review of the AQ2 Studio and/or Stage kits.
-
Keeping my eyes open for a second hand version of this for gigging. Thank you for the demo :).
-
Thank you for demoing some jazz on this kit. Almost all the demos I've seen never play this kit with a jazz sensitivity.
-
Kit sounds nice for a entry level drum set. The playing is very nice as well. Thx for the video..
-
I have the pre-AQ2 Safari "Select Hardwood" set that I've turned in to a small-venue kit. It has the 14x12 floor tom, and with good heads and some light damping, it really works well for that. This would definitely be a step up... though, as commented below, I'd prefer a 14" floor tom.
-
After getting a used Ludwig breakbeats kit, I'm in pain listening to how great this Sonor kit sounds..
-
Good review BTW, very informative. Helped me with the buying decision. Look forward to receiving my Safari in Titanium Quartz soon.
-
I have the aq2 martini, bop and stage set and i know this kit sounds better, even with the oem heads. But nice review. 👌😎
-
What happened to Nollie? Or, whatever his name was? I really liked him
-
Thanks for testing !!!
-
What about sizes and models of the Paiste signature. It sounds great too! Thanks for the vidéo
-
Only 2.3mm hoops are on the snare. Rest of the kit is 1.6mm. I emailed Sonor about it because there seemed to be mixed reports. They answered rather quickly.
-
Your description mentions reinforcing rings in the shell construction. Is this correct chaps? I'm thinking the German made Sonor shells likely do, but aren't AQ2 shells made in China? In which case, it seems unlikely they will have reinforcing rings. Terrific if they do, as I've ordered a Safari......
-
I'd be curious to know how big/heavy of a ride cymbal the 18in bass drum can support.
-
Can you do a review of the Ludwig classic oak drums?
-
Jazz review would be nice.
-
Check out Pearl Midtown , same measures , great sound for Price, bass drum sounds very fat... This sonor its a great drum but, expensive... and sounds better than Pearl Midtown , but belive me no so far in sound...
-
Pearl Midtown, put on it some decent drum heads and you have almost the same for much less money
-
Sounds great, I just hate that the whole set keeps shaking around when it's played
