From WALSTIB

...After the magnet test, the Acrolite hoops are in aluminium.The weight is 2.4 kg

I would think COB for those hoops...

Cheers

John

Well, the total snare weight is 2.4 kg

The hoops are very light, a little bit like first generation of ASBA hoops made in Zamak.

Very very light...

Those early Acros had aluminum lugs and hoops but those were soon dropped in favor of the standard parts (which at the time meant COB hoops). The welded textured aluminum shell was also replaced with a seamless aluminum "acoustiperfect" design which is the same shell as the Supra uses.

Thanks!

So , mine is full original...Good.

I have a question:

mine have a creased edge, when did the acrolite change to the countersink angle chamfer?
