These Millenium ring match perfectly on any drums. A bargain compared to other brands, price is equal for the level of sonic impact you'll get. These rings help improve drum skin sound and you don't need to change drum heads because thy just sit on top of the drum skin. They work amusingly to get rid of any extra unwanted reverb from the Shells and Snare of the drum kit but if they don't lie flat then they will come off the drum kit when you hit the drums. I am using moongel on top of Millenium Sound Control Ring to not came off and to further damped reverberation of shell.

Control Rings, who knew?
Possibly the best value for money upgrade I've ever heard in 20 years music making. I cannot believe the difference that these set of simple plastic rings made to my drum kit!
Placed on the drumhead they do away with all the small overtones/buzzes/ringing sounds that come from your kit. Honestly I'd never even noticed them before, but doing a quick A/B with them on and off the kit, and the difference is staggering. I read someone on a forum talking about these, and I got them on a whim when I was placing an order for some skins, not expecting much, but honestly, I was astonished. My studio kit sounds much better now for recording. And they are so cheap. Highly recommended.

Cheap sound control
I use them along with the Millenium drum heads set and it works great.
It removes all the bad harmonics and make drums sound much cleaner.
It is cheaper than all the other options for sound control, but still works almost as good as the expensive products.
With moongels and similar products you have more freedom for placement and control of a sound, but for this amount of money, this is a killer deal.

I don't like these
This is the first Thomann product I have bought which I didn't like. The snare and floor tom rings fitted but the high and mid tom ones were too big - they were for a standard rock kit which is what I thought these were meant to fit. Perhaps I bought the wrong size in error?
Having said that they are very thin and the effect they gave is pretty minimal compared to the Evans ones that my drum teacher uses on his two kits. I think I'll chuck these and get the Evans ones instead.

really useful, especially with gels/stickers
For the percussionist who cares about the sound, these things are a must. I would use them for live performance ocasionally, but mostly for studio/rehearsal. Their cost and flexibility make them an essential component of the drummer who can hear and tell the difference. Otherwise dont bother, as they don't store that well -you have to leave them flat, untattered, and unbent, otherwise you have problems. I have several sets for each kit I use, and always have spares around.

Best value way to calm your drums!
Our drums were ringing out significantly and just muddying the mix, moon gel worked ok but we seemed to need loads, these solved the issue of long decay and are extremely good value.
If you want a tight mix from your drums look no further than these.

Bye overtones!
Like the title says all overtones are gone and they fit perfectly.

Worth Buying for any drum kit
These sound control rings do there job well enough by removing the horrible frequencies and leaving you with a nice gentle thud, My only issues are that the damage quite easily and do not sit on the drums perfectly, needing occasional re-adjustment to remove a rattling sound it produces against the rim.

Once they bend they stop working
When they are functional they work amusingly to get rid of any extra unwanted reverb from the Shells and Snare of the kit but if they don't lie flat then they will come off the drum kit when you hit the drums.
I buy Dampening Gels now that achieve a better effect and don't weaken the sound of your drums.

too big for my drums
I tried an Evans one and this fits my yamaha gigmaker drum perfectly. These in contrary are too big and don't touch the drumsurface well. I will cut them and connect again with transparant tape. I don't advice the cheaper option of Millenium in this case, altough I already had a lot of good Millenium products (rack stand etc) SO two stars in total: not to buy
