The Ahead Armor Snare Case has some innovative features that are truly worth a detailed investigation. All of the cases have a heavy-duty, waterproof, 600 denier polyester exterior, complemented inside by their "DX-Core": two layers of high-impact foam padding and a soft interior lining of premium Sherpa Fleece. This combination offers the snugness and smaller dimensions of soft cases, while still retaining the resistance and strength of hard plastic cases. Another great feature can be found by looking at the shape of the cases themselves: they are designed to hold not just the drum, but the mounted hardware as well; no need to shove your expensive drum into a case that just doesn't quite fit.
After I bought this, I found it for $5 cheaper elsewhere. Oh well. BUT bottom line this case is great, just like Protection Racket but with the extra space for the snare throw off. Great idea. Now if they make a version with space for a spare head (that can be zipped open and closed), that would be perfect.
I know that a rigid case would probably be more protective, but this AHEAD case swaddles my DW Performance Series 14X8 steel snare like an infant at the NICU....AND FOR LESS MONEY. I'll likely buy more for the rest of my kit at some point.
The foam padding and soft interior really feel good and the quality of stitching and the zipper seem very good. Time will tell but so far, I like it.
