"Well … hearing is believing. I set-up my 22” bass drum with the Kicker in-place and was immediately impressed by the quality of the low-end sound coming from the drum … whatever the technical explanation, it seems a better, more practical and consistent solution than my using a pillow! I’m quite impressed by the product."

“The Kicker is awesome! It’s made every Bass drum of mine sound better! I sleep better at night as well. All my pillows are back in my bedroom where they belong.”

"Kicker is a simple and very effective way to get rid of any unwanted overtones, it sounds great! I like the fact that it doesn’t move inside the bass drum, therefore, the sound is very consistent."

Paul Wertico

“I love the Kicker! Depending on the musical situation, I use different sized bass drums and the Kicker makes all my bass drums sing with clarity and a beautiful boost to each drum’s low-end. Its design is also truly versatile and it seems like the more I use my Kickers, the more I find new sonic possibilities.”

"The best bass drum mute I’ve ever used, period! The feel is outstanding… perfect bounce/squish ratio. The design is genius… easily add or take away the amount of mute you want. But most importantly, when I A/B’d my old (pillow mute) recorded bass drum against the new 'Kicker' muted bass drum, the difference was apparent. It added low end and punch without adding muddiness. Also, cleaned up the clacky high end, unwanted beater noise."

“Kicker 4.0 gives me the flexibility for a punchy tight bass drum sound and the removable tubes allows for adding resonance. Recording drums or playing live, this is a must-have for any drummer!

"Wow. As soon as I tried The Kicker, it blew me away. It’s so solid and what a bottom end! My kick drum felt brand new, a completely renewed tone. It works perfectly in my 22” bass drum and I can’t wait to put The Kicker in all my bass drums. This was the sound that I’ve been looking for. When I recorded it, what I played was the same as what I heard in playback. No change, finally just what I played! Good things do come to those who wait. The Kicker is fantastic!

"I tried the Kicker and I really like it. I’ve been using it in the studio and can’t wait to use it when I’m back playing live again."

"I've been using the Kicker drum dampener/muffler for a couple of months now in all my kick drums. I'm blown away at how much more depth and punch I'm getting from my kick drums compared to the previous blankets or pillows I was using to dampen the kick up till now, especially when under the mic when recording. Do yourself a favor and pick one up asap! well worth it!"

"The Sonitus Acoustics Kicker is the best head to head bass drum muffler I've ever used. Very solid construction and extremely versatile with the removable tubes and top section to allow for fine-tuning and securing a boundary mic".
