Re: Sonor select force
I think they're pretty well built and probably sound great in any setting. Found this (below) about their design.
Select Force Sounds
7-layer Canadian maple shells offer uncompromisingly rich and warm sounds, highlight lower pitches and provide balance in the mid-range and treble. Whether in the woodshed, recording studio or on stage, SONOR’s Select Force sets deliver a powerful performance every time.
