I wen't to a studio a while back and the drummer had a couple black panther snares. I think there pretty cool my self. Mapex has some really impressive kits. The orion looks to be a really nice kit. I've never played a set, but I ordered a magazine from them and I read the specs and the way the build there kits. The systems they use to help the shell resonate impressed me. Dom Famularo has a Saturn and even though the kit was over the net it sounded pretty good. They are a good kit especially for the money you spend on them. I've used the hardware before and they make good hardware. Over all they make pretty good kits.
