Sound Pure's Take

The Mars Series Shell Pack produces a fast and clear tone with a quick stick rebound. The SONIClear bearing edge allows the drumhead to sit flatter and make better contact with the shell, and helps provide an effortless tuning experience especially at lower tunings. The birch provides a slightly drier sound compared to other tone woods and excels in tonal attack. Drummers operating on any budget looking to upgrade their kit, can do this without breaking the bank. The Mars drum sets deliver sounds weighty with a full rounded tone, fast attack, and a professional look to match– not what expect from this price range of kit.

From Mapex

The SONIClear tom suspension and floor tom feet (simiar to the Saturn IV system) increase overall resonance by preserving vibration in the shell and keeping stress away from the tension rods, helping the heads stay in tune. Additionally, the 2-up and 1-down configuration keeps all the toms within easy reach while the extra deep bass drum produces a powerful, yet naturally equalized tone.

 

  • This 5-piece shell pack includes10”and12” mounted rack toms, 16” floor tom, 14” snare drum and a 22”x18” kick.
  • The SONIClear(TM) tom suspension and floor tom feet increase overall resonance by preserving vibration in the shell and keeping stress away from the tension rods, helping the heads stay in tune.
