Sonor AQ2 snare drum 14" x 6"
If you are looking for a snare drum with a warm, balanced sound, this Sonor AQ2 is a solid option. The 100% maple shell, made from Canadian and Chinese maple, gives you deep low frequencies and an even mix of mids and highs, making this 14" x 6" snare broadly usable within your drum kit.
The shell uses a 7-ply construction with a thickness of 5.8 mm. Combined with the 45° bearing edges, the head meets the shell edge directly, which contributes to a clear response and controlled attack.
Build and finish of the AQ2
Sonor finishes this AQ2 snare drum in Brown Fade with a high-gloss lacquer, combined with chrome hardware for a refined look. The 2.3 mm Power Hoops and SONOR AQ double lugs with a 35 mm hole spacing complete the construction.
The TuneSafe system is also a practical detail, helping the drum hold its tuning more reliably. If you play often or retune regularly, that is a useful feature. If you have questions about setup or parts, Magna Music can also help with personal advice from musicians in the shop and workshop.
Technical details and snare mechanism
This Sonor snare has a conventionally built shell and a standard throw-off snare mechanism. The AQ2 badge measures 40 x 60 mm and matches the recognizable styling of the series.
For drummers looking for a 14" x 6" maple snare drum with tidy hardware, stable tuning and a warm foundation, this is an appealing option for rehearsal, lessons or stage use.
