Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The Mapex ARMORY series positions itself as an "accessible premium" choice within the brand's acoustic drum lineup. It incorporates part of the DNA of high-end models, notably hardware elements originally developed for the famous SATURN IV, as well as the SONIClear suspension system taken from the SATURN V. The result: a performance-oriented kit designed to meet the expectations of demanding drummers seeking a modern, reliable drum set ready to withstand rehearsals, recordings, and concerts.
Who This Drum Kit Is For
The Mapex Armory Studioease 6-piece is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced drummers looking for a complete set capable of covering a wide musical spectrum without compromising precision. Thanks to its quick response and clear projection, it suits styles where clarity is paramount: rock, pop, funk, modern metal, as well as fusion and contemporary music in a studio context.
Its configuration with two rack toms and two floor toms offers great freedom in placement and tuning, convenient for drummers who like to build drum orchestrations (more melodic fills, broader drum rolls, varied tuning setups). Since the kit is delivered without accessories or cymbals, it also appeals to musicians already equipped who want to invest first in quality shells and complete their setup later according to their preferences.

Questions frequently asked
Which shells are included in the Mapex Armory Studioease Rain Forest?
The setup includes six shells: a 22 x 18 bass drum, two rack toms, two floor toms, and a 14 x 5.5 Armory snare drum. The rack tom measures 10 x 7 and the floor tom 14 x 12.
Is the 22x18 bass drum ported?
The 22 x 18 bass drum is unported and does not have a mount. This design preserves the shell's resonance and requires the use of separate tom mounts.
What sound qualities do the birch/maple/birch shells provide?
The 6-ply, 7.2 mm shells combine birch, maple, and birch for a quick attack and focused projection. The maple core adds warmth to the overall tone.
Are tom mounts included?
Two TH800 tom mounts are included for mounting the toms. The SONIClear Suspension system is designed to allow the shells to resonate more freely.
What are the features of the snare drum provided?
The 14 x 5.5 Armory snare drum has a 1 mm steel shell. Its 2.3 mm Power Hoops enhance durability and the presence of rimshots. Accessories and cymbals are not included with the drum kit.
