Critic Consensus- Music Radar poured over the explosive attack and a generous low-end that the DW Collectors Series Drumset had to offer. The dynamic range is excellent and the tuning range is reasonable.
Drum Center of New Hampshire did side by side comparisons on the differing tones of each wood type. With all of the various drums, they found the finishes to be “exquisite” and they raved about DW’s attention to detail. All of the drumsets they reviewed were given perfect scores.
