 "Good, but is wearing out quickly." 2010-03-15
By Matthew Vaughan (Houston, Texas)
Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with the Aquarian Double Kick Drum Pad. I play mostly metal music (In Flames, Escape the Fate, Killswitch Engage), and it has protected my bass drum quite well. However, there was one issue that I'd like to notify any heavy metal drummer interested in this product; I'd suggest checking the leverage/tension on the kick pedals before playing to make sure to avoid hitting the pad too hard. I say this because the Kick Pad I have is wearing out somewhat quickly after only a month of use, which is pretty obvious from all the white dust that part of the pad has disintegrated into where the kick pedal is located. Also, while I'm pretty sure I'm playing too hard, it may be that the pad isn't the highest quality, and there may be pads out there that have a better endurance rate.

 "Kick" 2009-06-19
By Nicholas A. Douglas (el paso, tx usa)
This kick-pad is excellent. It additionally lowers the sound of your bass drum, so if you're not satisfied with the sound, this will help. It lasts very long and can take a beating of all kinds, whether you single pedal like Nirvana of double pedal like All That Remains. I highly suggest this kick-pad if you're looking for one that will last long and protect your bass drum from injury =D

 "About what you'd expect for the cost" 2009-11-20
By Jet (USA)
I've bought these in bulk to house a custom product I sell, and I've had complaints from customers about the zipper getting stuck and the plastic clip for the shoulder strap breaking. I don't know how they'd work for cymbals but they obviously can't take much abuse.

 "Good entry level case" 2004-12-01
By Victoria Tarrani (Betwixt FL and CA, USA)
For the price you cannot beat this case, which can hold up to ten cymbals as large as 20".



It is well constructed, sufficiently so to support the heavy weight of a bag full of cymbals, and comes with a detachable strap and built-in carrying handles.



There are a few minuses, though. First, there are no dividers, so you will need to use cloth or plastic covers for each of your cymbals to protect them. Second, there is only a single compartment, which means that your smaller splash and your hi-hat cymbals are going to get mixed in with larger ride and crash cymbals.



If you are on a budget and don't have any cymbals larger than 20", this is a good first case that will protect your investment in cymbals if you use covers to compensate for the lack of dividers and pockets. Mine came with a Zildjian cymbal pack, but I needed a case for my 22" Avedis ride, so purchased the Zildjian Gadd Session Cymbal Bag (ASIN B0002D0FXM). Although that bag is over twice the cost of this one, it is one you should consider if your budget permits.

 "Outstanding Xylophone Mallet" 2006-07-03
By Jason Decristofaro (Asheville, NC)
This is an outstanding xylophone mallet, and transfers well over to glockenspiel and orchestral crotales. This is the choice mallet for playing with larger groups, especially orchestras and wind ensembles. The staccato sound of the xylophone is enunciated when struck with these mallets, and simultaneously produces a resonant tone. On certain xylophones, especially ones made of rosewood, these might damage the instrument. I would also highly recommend NOT playing these on a xylorimba, marimba, vibraphone, or set of tubular bells. However, specifically for the xylophone, they are a perfectly designed mallet. On xylophones made of kelon, the mallets produce an especially sonorous sound while maintaining the staccato nature of the instrument.

I purchased the Pearl JG-16 to convert a Premier 16" X 18" floor tom to a bass drum. It has done the job nicely and looks very tidy and compact. Please note you will also require the Pearl ISS and BT-3 components to complete the conversion project. It cost me around £30 in total to convert my floor tom to a bass drum. Apparently Pearl made this product with musicians into Jungle music.....? Any way i use it for jazz/be-bop/blues and the likes. I use a fairly small 3 drums 3 cymbals kit and it works well for me.

 "The Speed King" 2010-02-27
By M. Saul-Bolger (California-Fresno)
I use a Yamaha Flying Dragon (Direct Drive) set of twins for my two bass drums with that kit. But on my Ludwig Bonham Amber Vistalite I use the Speed King. I also have a 70's original Speed king in my Living room china Cabinet. Basically there is not much difference between the two. Same weight and action. I like a direct drive pedal as opposed to chain(Cams) or straps. On my Ludwig kit I find myself backing my foot off the pedal and droping it down and mainly working it with the ball of my foot for the fast response. So far is has held up fine, but if it breaks I will probably want another one because for the single bass action I really enjoy it! The Yamaha pedals like much of todays modern pedals are heavier and are a kind of different thing I think. On my 24" Maple kicks I would use those actually. But for the felt beater and a 26X14" kick the speed king is a groove!

 "Me and the King" 2009-12-05
By James R. Lofrano
I'll second that reveiw, sure it's an old design and it squeaks like a rusty door hinge, check it out on "Since I've Been Lovin' You" on Zepplin III by Zepplin, the squeak that is, and you can clearly hear it. But there is nothing, nothing that feels quite like it on this planet anyways. Every other pedal comes up short, my Speed King and I are best friends. Hook it up to your bass drum and give it a good hard kick and you'll know you've got something by the tail. Those twin compression springs start humming and god is in his heaven and the world is alright again, I wish everything was this easy.

 "Best Pedals I've ever Played" 2009-03-21
By N. Smith (Washington Coast USA)
First off, I gave this 4 stars because I haven't played this particular pedal. I used to play an original Speed King (wish I still had it!)and there's a reason it's called a SPEED King. Easy to play, easy to do quick "skips",(like a double bass) and easy on the shins! I LOVE Speed King pedals, and there are a lot of other drummers that swear by them. There's nothing fancy about them, they're just GREAT pedals..the best in my opinion, and I've played quite a few. I used to almost CHERISH that pedal! You could switch drum types etc, but the pedal STAYS! For what it's worth...excellent pedal and I highly recommend Speed King!

 "Not perfect... but a good compromise" 2010-03-18
By Michael J Edelman (Huntington Woods, MI USA)
You'd think that there would be more than just two practice drum sets out there- yet other than the DW kit and a larger kit from Remo, that's it. The next step up for someone looking for a practice kit is one of the ION electronic drum sets- which are more toy than instrument- and the low-end digital drum kits that start at around $500. At under $150, the DW kit is a pretty good buy. Packed up, it's small enough for the traveling drummer to take on tour for hotel room practicing and back stage warmups.I bought a DW kit for my nephew to use (I do my practicing on a Pearl Rhythm Traveler with mesh heads) and he's pretty pleased with it. The pads have a good bounce, it works with a standard bass pedal, and his mother likes the fact that it doesn't take up too much space.



Likes:

Ruggedness

Small size

Portability



Dislikes:

You really have to crank down on the locking screws to keep the pads from moving.

There's no hi-hat

The "cymbal" pad is okay, but I'd rather have a practice cymbal.



Some drummers use these with a practice cymbal on a pad, and a set of practice cymbals on a cheap hi-hat- a good compromise, although by the time you add those items you're already spending round $250 total. I think at that point I'd save another $250 and get a of low-end electronic kit from Alesis.

 "Needs More Work" 2009-12-09
By Jerry P. Danzig (New York, NY USA)
This product is a great idea for drummers who need a way to practice without disturbing others, but in my experience, it needs further refinement.



The chief problem is the bass drum pad: it's adjustable only up-and-down, not backwards and forwards. If you have a chain-driven pedal with a non-adjustable throw like me, you will likely find that the beater doesn't make contact with the pad. Even if you do have a pedal with an adjustable throw -- who wants to adjust your pedal every time you practice? You don't need to fiddle with your pedal every time you set up a real drum set, because you can adjust the height of the bass drum's feet easily to suit the throw of your pedal.



I solved the problem here by buying a DW Hardcore Beater, which has an unusally pronounced 1-1/2" offset, but this set me back an additional $30 I would rather have kept in my pocket.



I also found that the platform to which you attach your bass pedal isn't thick enough to enable a secure mount. I found my bass pedal sliding around, causing constant readjustments. I solved this problem by gluing a rubber pad to the platform using contact cement -- but this solution set me back another $10.



Finally I encountered a manufacturing defect in the "cymbal" pad, which didn't screw down on its arm tight enough to prevent the washer underneath the pad from revolving and making an irritating "ching" with each stroke. I solved THIS problem by removing the washer altogether; I'm not sure what purpose the washers serve any way.



I also found DW less than helpful with this last problem. I contacted their customer service and asked if these washers were really necessary and if so, would they send me another one or two to fill the gap under the cymbal pad. To my surprise, they answered that there should only be one washer under each pad -- this answer makes no sense, as you always add washers (or use thicker ones)in situations like this. Their advice was to bring the whole unit back to the retailer and have it swapped out. What a pain!



I thought DW was comprised of drummers making drum equipment for drummers, and I am disappointed both in the minor but annoying shortcomings of this device as well as their dismissive customer service.



UPDATE: it is unfortunate that you can't adjust the pad arms vertically; in particular, the vertical proximity of the "hihat" and "snare" pads makes it hard to play the hihat cross-stick as you normally would on a drumset. I hope DW will address these various shortcomings in a future Go Anywhere Pad Set!

 "Ultimate Drum Practice Rig" 2009-12-05
By Jeremy M. Hudson (Midwest, USA)
I wish this product would have existed when I was in high school, because all I ever did was practice my real feel pad. I couldn't ever play my actual drumset(which costed twice as much as this thing) because it bothered my family, if I would have had this though...I have been dreaming of this product for years, at one point I even built something similar by drilling a tunable pad into the back of my couch so I'd have something quiet to practice my bass drum foot on. DW to the rescue. This thing is completely positionable and still very sturdy, a combination you've always got to be looking for in any drum equipment. Although it is difficult to get the groove feel of a real drumset with anything other than a real drumset(i have the same problem with electronic kits), a lot of what drummers *should* be practicing are rudiments and independence exercises. This is perfect for that stuff and I've seen immense improvements in my independence and my bass drum/tom combo rolls. In order to round out the set and give it a more real feel, this is what I did: get two cheap snare drum stands and any other two practice pads and use those as the snare and the high hat. There's no way arms would ever reach as far around you as a real drumset might without these extra pieces. My other addition is a dw trigger pedal, which I use to simulate the high hat pedal, I picked one up used for 40 bucks and it's been worth it's weight in gold, as I've been able to finally get my double-pedaling up to some speed. In summary, this rig is worth every penny of 150 bucks and it should be any drummers first, not second, drumset.

 "Great" 2009-07-12
By William Peters
I'm currently stationed in Iraq with the 1st Cav Band, and our current building is pretty loud to practice set in. So I saw this practice pad set and thought I would try it out. So far I really enjoy it, its the job done and doesn't require a lot of noise or space. Right now I'm using my Iron Cobra double bass pedal and futz practice pedal for hi hat. It works pretty good for practicing different grooves and working on 4 way independence. It's easy to set up anyway you want for many different configurations, I set mine up just to simulate hi hat, snare, low tom and ride cymbal... Works pretty good for me. I say its a good buy and worth the money for anyone just wanting something simple and quiet to practice set. Also the practice pads come off real easy and you can use to practice snare stuff on a table or your lap if you like...

 "Perfect for what I need" 2009-06-20
By M. Todd
I really wanted to get an electronic drum set, but I don't have the cash for it right now so I purchased this practice kit instead to pass the time. I can say that I thoroughly enjoy it. At first when you get it home and out and set up it feels funny because every pad just makes a different tone of a practice pad and your ears want to hear those typical drum sounds. Once you get over that though it becomes a really great tool to practice your chops without making anyone around you mad. One draw back to the kit is that the pad that was supposed to extend out to the left to mimic the hi hat does not stretch out far enough to give you the normal feel of where you might place your hi hat on a real kit. To compensate for this you can actually just by a hi hat stand, cymbals, and get a mute for it and use the 4 pads as a snare and 3 toms. That way you can also work on your left foot action with the hi hat also. That's what I'm eventually going to do, but for now I just deal with the hi hat being a little off. That's my only despair about this set up. Other than that I love it. The pads are a lot smaller than a normal kit so after playing with this for a little bit you'll be dead on center with your kit!

 "Best money spent on drum accessories!" 2010-03-18
By Michael J. Matassa
These cases are awesome. Nicely padded, seem durable. Provide snug protection for my drums. My band mates agree that they are a steal for what they cost.

 "Good bang for the buck" 2009-04-15
By Rim (Alexandria, VA)
I bought this for bringing my 5 piece kit to local gigs and they work for that. The padding is nice and the drums fit snugly. It takes a little doing to fit the kick and floor tom but it's understandable. Two things prevent me from giving it 5 stars. Although the bag straps are good for using them over you shoulder, it's not the easiest to use when you just want to carry them by hand. Being on the short side (5' 5"), using the long straps by hand results in the drums dragging on the floor. A short handle on the side would've been convenient. The other thing I wished they had are side pockets to store some of the hardware.



I bought these instead hard cases because I didn't think I needed the extra protection. This still holds true. But a big advantage of the hard shell cases is the ease of putting the drums in and out of them - a friend has them and it's a cinch. But as my title said, for the money, it protects my drums during local travel.
