Congrats - and shame you didn´t get the 14".
Not cheap, but still OK, I think.
This shop gives great service - bought a nice Inferno Red Projector kit there in december, postage less than 50£ to Denmark. Kit perfect, 2 very minor scratches all that could be found. Now awating cutdown from powersizes to normal, new lugs have been assmbled. Thanks, Nick and others!
Regards
Jon

- The 8" is not "really" a Resonator, is it? It is a thick shell, no rings, no liner, right?

| Nice haul Dug. I think some of the earlier 8" Resonators had thin re-ring shells, but no liners which Prem claimed (probably quite rightly) that they did not have a worthwhile affect on the sound. |

Would be an absolute pain to fit one - very fiddly, getting all your three hands into so little space to do the job.
I have never seen an 8" Elite with rerings neither...

Nice! I once wrote a short story in the style of Douglas Adams' Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy. It said something like this: The fact that humans have two hands is conclusive proof of the non-existence of God, for if he did exist he would have known that all jobs which Man undertakes require three hands, so He would have made us with three.

| The 8" doesn't have a liner, the finishing on these drums is like obsidian, beautiful, just bloody miffed somebody has the 14x14 floor before I got a chance on it!! |

No liner - but no re-rings either, or?
If it has, I can send you a piece of 2 mm birgh to fit in it, if you´d like a try...

Great!

OK,these are coated, the bass is an early APK, the 14 and 15 are both converted hangers, so 14x12 and 15x13.
But they DO sound great!
