Great low cost octobans

G-Evans 28.04.2018

For some reason the alternatives for getting octobans are crazy prices.

These are great value. The milennium hardware on the stands is good. Although the design seems to have changed. The version i have use tom arms like pearl tom arms, two tubes with a pivot joint in the middle. Whereas they seem to be ball joint and L-rods now like tama toms. Personally i dont like ball joints, i prefer the reliability of a solid arm. However i admit they are a little limited in positions with those arms as the teeth inside the mechanicsm limits possible angles but after a while of tinkering you can get them where you want them. L-rods have their own limits but in terms of micro adjustments of angles if thats what you want then the new design will likely be better for you.

The heads that come with them sound good.

All round just good value for money, an excellent way to add more range of percussive sounds to a kit. well worth buying both sets of sizes so you have the full 4 available octobans.

One thing i would say is, it's OCTObans thomann. where are the other 4 sizes? I'd buy them in a heart beat.

very impressive

Cam F. 06.06.2014

I thought there must be a catch with these octobans as they're so cheap. I was wrong - these are aluminium shells with a surprisingly sturdy double braced stand offering multiple set up positions. I changed the stock heads immediately for better quality heads. these octobans are indistinguishable sound wise from the Japanese equivalents which you'd be paying four times more for. Very impressive product and by the way I have owned a certain Japanese equivalent in the past so it's an informed review.

Excellent quality

Bennyramone 20.02.2015

To start with, the stand is chunky and of excellent quality. It is thick and has strength. The only possible down point is that it doesn't extend very high but you can always take the top section out and clamp this to a heavy duty cymbal stand. The drums themselves are aluminium and yield a bright and popping sound that you'd expect. They sound fantastic even with the stock heads. I put some evans G14's on these and this really brought the drums to life! The tuning is simple and you can get a good range throughout the drums, especially with upgraded heads. I would say that these drums are just as good as the Tama octobans and would further add that they are more flexible in terms of positioning because of the more traditional tom mounting bracket and post design (as opposed to Tama slot mounts).

Great quality but the sound somehow is not what expected

Stam Athens 03.06.2019

As with their high frequency brothers they are good quality made but also if I would change something, the shell I would do it folly of PVC for warmer sound. Change drumheads when you get them and pay attention to the tuning to get them where you want them
