Re: The effect of good hoops
Interesting idea but doesn't make much sense (to me). If it is true that 2.3mm hoops allow a drum to "open up" more then why do the majority of high-end drum sets come with die cast?
I'm glad you are having success with flanged hoops but until I experience the same results you did (and I have tried this experiment with no results to the better) I will continue to use and buy cast hoops.
Thanks for sharing. Maybe I will try again.
