Value Meets Performance with the Sonor 5.5 x 14-Inch AQ2 Steel Snare Drum

AQ2 offers more value and more choices than any other instrument in its class. 100% Maple shells offer a mellow, warm and very balanced, full tone with low frequency punch and a balance of mids and highs. The Smart Mount suspension system maximizes the drums sustain. The cast lugs with TuneSafe and the high-quality shell hardware provide a professional feel. Four high-gloss lacquers, one Delmar wrap-finish and an almost unlimited choice of sizes allow everyone to configure the drum set they are looking for.
