Your comment had nothing to do with A/B testing drums, so Yeh, really too fucking funny. As always , you trying to back pedal after getting proved wrong yet again...lol

BTW I forgot to mention earlier that the favorite heads that Whitney drum company tested was Aquarian, funny that all the radial type drum companies seem to lean toward Aquarian, even the Peavey's came with them, and I doubt its a coincidence, I mean assembly line drums come with whatever they can get the best deal on knowing people will change them to their fav head anyway but these custom/boutique companies would want them going out sounding the very best they can make them regardless of the difference in price of a head, right?

As for the A/B testing comment my reply to that was my experience A/B testing DW, Pearl masters and Yamaha MCA against the radials in 1999.

As for your ply PHX yes they sound very good and are somewhat close to the sound that a 19 year old ply Radial design gets (just imagine how good that PHX shell would sound with no holes or mounts or stress) but neither are going to hold a candle to the sound the stave and steam bent shell Gurus will get. Come on now, apples to apples , oranges to oranges, your trying to compare a Chevy to a Ferrari.

Me too, I put a worldmax 3 leg cradle on my 16, the alloy Guager's are too expensive and didnt match the old ones. I think Guager decided to patent the new alloy "RIMS" mount and drop the old ones considering there are about 4 or 5 different companies that make the chrome ones now.
