PearlKickPort 4" Bass Drum Sound Hole - White

used this on my tama club jam. tiny tiny kit with an 18'' bass drum, with single ply remo ambassador coated heads. a large room 10m x 3m. the room was not soundproofed, just a couple of really good home made absorption panels immediately above the kit. before the kick port, the bass drum sounded lost, confused, unfocused, like someone smacking a paper bag with a carpet beater (more or less, i'm sure we've all been there). after the kick port, it was tune-able, deep, tight and focused, both in front of and behind the kit.personally as primarily a jazz player, i've never been invested much in ports of any kind. an ambassador has always been the go to. i never play massively loud or particularly aggressive. in my particular setup, i loved the kit itself (seriously for anyone interested its unbeatable at its price point) but due to the room and circumstances the bass drum needed a lot of work, the heads making the biggest difference. the stock heads just wont do. before you buy one of these make sure you have the right head fitted for your needs.more than that i cant say. for my setup it *literally* worked wonders. i cannot rate it high enough. its expensive for what it is, but, at least for my needs, it made a huge difference. highly recommended

Increased the low end tone and also helps as a protector to the drum head hole. I also also the fact that it is re-usable.

Hallo Schlagzeuger,ich habe mich überwunden den hohen Preis zu investieren, da ich meiner 18"Bassdrum mehr Tiefe und Sättigung im Livesound geben wollte und - naja, man sollte keine Wunder erwarten aber der Sound ist Präsenter als ohne !Ob es sich für eine oder 24" BD auch lohnen würde, weiß ich nicht.Der BD Sound wird nicht wie von mir erwartet tiefer oder satter, sondern in seinem Frequenz-Spektum breiter wiedergegeben.Also der Kick kommt mit Kickport von ca.79 bis 100 Hz statt nur einer kleinen Spitze (ohne Port) bei ca. 90Hz.Akustisch am Set spielend hatte ich den Unterschied kaum gemerkt, aber im Raumklang und bei Aufnahmen wurde der Kick deutlich besser !Also bis auf den Preis alles super, aber dafür das es nur etwas Plastik ist, was nicht soo teuer sein muss die 2 Sterne Abzug !

non scriverò troppo merito al suo funzionamento in quanto sono state spese fiumi di pagine sul prodotto. Dico solo che la cassa di suo dovrebbe già suonare bene, dunque se avete bisogno di pelli migliori o altro, fatelo prima di acquistare il kickport o se proprio necessita cambiate cassa. Io ho messo circa 80 cm di gommapiuma piramidale grigia sul fondo (per tutta la larghezza e contro la superficie) pelli buone e un battente decente e già così suonava bene e ora ha qualcosina in più. Il prodotto è molto bello da vedere e dà un buon effetto che si sposa ottimamente con le cromature dell'hardware e altre parti o elementi.

Prodotto eccellente, di semplice istallazione e ottimo risultato finale. Prezzo davvero basso rispetto allo stesso modello di colorazioni diverse. Dopo averlo provato ne ho acquistato un secondo.
