one review says the cymbals don't touch? is this really the case? or was his set incorrectly adjusted? thanks

I bought the set for my husband. He said that they do touch. The will need to be adjusted correctly, if they are not touching. He adjusted them after the purchase.

I cannot answer this because we purchase this set for our 12 year old grandson. We are not savy about any drums. He is not either. And they do not live with us. Sorry. I did ask the daughter if she might can find out as her son can ask his dad(her ex - who is a drummer) and if they get back to me I will let you know.

To me there's nicely balanced - some have described a deeper bass due to the wood - I can hear it but its not obnoxious nor out of place - I think they are well tuned per se. I've never heard them distort on harder tracks which tells me the its well engineered - warm ? Yeah its a nicely balanced warm...

Noup. Nothing loose. My son has been playing with the guitar w/o any issues... He's learning, might not be the usual treatment a guitar gets. He's been very careful with it.

all the drums are double trigger, head and rim. I hate hitting the rim by accident and triggering a chime, etc... so I bought splitters that split the stereo input into two mono inputs, and ended up nearly doubling the set. it was awesome until the tornado hit. I miss that set.

You can try adjusting the neck or may be a flaw in a fret. Mine was great out of the box with just a little adjustment in the action.

mine works fine. I did have to switch the product once with Amazon due to the loose elastic strap. But the replacement came in just two days. I'll say keeping enjoy the music and call Amazon to send you a new one.

Mine sounds awesome. I couldn't be more please for the price to quality ratio. I've had a few of my fellow players comment on it's good sound. I can't, of course, say what yours might sound like but I'm pleased with mine and have had it for quite a while now ... good luck

Mine was almost perfect. The intonation was off by a pinch on the third string. It sounded good before the adjustment, and excellent after.

No imbalance with mine... It is absolutely the best speaker set I have owned.

I may have found your problem . Float your tone arm all the up with the cart on it. Look at it at eye level . If it loos slanted its . I returned three Stanton turntables to amazon for the same thing. So I don't know if its Stanton crappy production or amazon buying shady stock' The box should have a stamped inspection sticker on it. My three didn't. All I can say is im done with Stanton products and amazon for that matter.

i would say they mute about 80% of the sound, except the bass drum, that is more like 60% the cymbal mutes should work on any size; the small one goes right to the edge of a 14" cymbal and the big one goes to about half an inch away from the edge of a 20" cymbal the bass drum mute doesn't have a strap or and kind of adhesive on it when you buy it. the cushion-type foam makes it difficult to attach; i tried some poster hangers i had laying around and double sided tape, but they didn't work the best way to attach it would probably be to pull the head off and tape the mute to the head

Good luck with your new kit. I am assuming you are having an issue with the riser. That is the weird looking thing that comes with the kit.You attach the riser to the bottom of the kick drum and it will lift the drum up so you can attach your pedal.If that does not help your problem do not hesitate to get back to me.Check out a video of me and a few of the local guys http://youtu.be/YQFa6oUVmZwAlso check out my other Sonor video http://youtu.be/ez8CJrGJVcsWhen you get up and running I will tell you how to improve your kit dramatically for a few more dollars.

Yes, I purchased three of these and one of the posts was crooked. One of them had crooked feet as well. They still sound good though :-)

You are correct about the photo being wrong for this item, I would contact the seller (Ant Hill Music) to verify, and to let them know. Hope this is of some help. Best of luck. Dave G.
