SONOR Kompressor Steel Snare Drum 14" x 6.5" – Chrome Plated

The SONOR KS 14x6.5 SDS Kompressor Snare Drum is designed to deliver breathtaking power, exceptional sensitivity and the unmistakable SONOR sound. Part of the versatile Kompressor Series, this steel snare combines robust construction, impressive projection and outstanding tonal flexibility, making it a reliable workhorse for drummers across a wide range of musical styles.

Featuring a 1 mm steel shell with a polished chrome-plated finish, this snare produces a bright, cutting and focused sound with excellent attack and projection. Its 14" × 6.5" dimensions provide additional depth and body, delivering a fuller low-end response while maintaining the sensitivity and articulation needed for detailed playing.

One of the key features of the Kompressor Series is SONOR's Optimum Shell Measurement (OSM) technology. By using a slightly reduced shell diameter, the drumheads are able to vibrate more freely, improving resonance and overall response.

The drum is equipped with 2.3 mm Power Hoops, SONOR double lugs and the TuneSafe System, ensuring excellent tuning stability even under demanding playing conditions. The standard snare throw-off provides straightforward and reliable snare wire adjustment, while genuine REMO® USA drumheads complete this professional package.
