Donner DDS 520 Acoustic Drum Kit Review

I recently had the pleasure of trying out the Donner DDS 520 Acoustic Drum Kit. As someone who has tried out a plethora of drum kits, I have to say that this one really impressed me. It is the perfect drum kit for beginners and those looking to upgrade their existing set.

To start off, the Donner DDS 520 comes with everything you need to get started right away. The set includes drums, hardware, cymbals, a drum throne, and a pair of sticks. It also boasts a built in silencer system which allows you to practice without annoying your family or neighbours. This is particularly helpful for those living in small spaces or apartments.

The drums are made from 6 ply 9mm Poplar hardwood shells with a hand cut 45 degree bearing edge. This creates a single air resonance chamber which amplifies the sound when the head is struck and makes it easier to tune. The hardware is 22 gauge tubing 1.0 thickened with riveted combination for moderate tightness and corrosion resistance for long lasting durability and bright finish. The double legged plated stand can withstand up to 330 lbs of weight making it very stable and practical while the upgraded bottom drum tread hammer offers 40 decay times in a single strike for high sensitivity and rebound height when stepping on it.

The Donner DDS 520 is an excellent choice for beginning drummers who want an easy to assemble set that won t break the bank but still provides good quality sound and performance. The thickened hardwood shells provide great resonance while the built in silencer system lets you practice in peace. The upgraded bottom drum tread hammer gives you plenty of sensitivity while playing and the double legged plated stand ensures stability no matter how hard you hit it.

In conclusion, I highly recommend the Donner DDS 520 Acoustic Drum Kit as an excellent starter set for new drummers or as an upgrade from an existing kit. It s easy to assemble, provides good quality sound and performance, and won t break the bank!
