Mapex Saturn LA Kit £1065
The loud and proud Saturn LA kit is the perfect balance of shell materials and dimensions but it's certainly not for those seeking quietness

Pros
Loud and proud kit that delivers a great quality of sound. Great looks.
Cons
Not so easy to play quietly and the long bass drum is not the most practical to cart around.
The bottom line
The drums ooze power, warmth and authority. This is a kit for red-blooded players used to performing in demanding environments, so it's not ideal for those seeking quietness and dynamics. That said, it's a fabulous package that does the job for which it was intended.
