No one makes my dream set of tenors - 6/8/10/12/14

To be tagged...

I marched only year of DCI on a big set of tenors (6/10/12/13/14) and have taught 32 years of marching band on small quints (6/8/10/12/13). For me, the small drums are just what I’m used to hearing at this point and is better for a 100 piece band with woodwinds. I do realize most players like the bigger drums, but weight is also a huge issue at the high school level. I think just the 13 is undersized and would love to hear a set with all even sizes - 6/8/10/12/14. I always end up tuning the 13 too low to get the sound I want. Ideally they would be shallow cut as well to dump more weight and increase projection.
