First of all, I have small problems with hardware: 1. the hi-hat stand was destroyed and I replaced it with a mapex hi-hat stand, 2. the screws of the rack of 2box were broken, and i replaced it with a roland rack mds-9.The rim of snare broke and it's not operational.However, it will be replaced because my guarantee is still valid.What should i have to do if all that happened while my guarantee was not valid?? The answer is: "i would have payed with my own money". This is kit causes trouble to me all the time before i really play with it. I have payed a sum of 2500 euros for 2box drumkit+mds 9 (made by Roland), + hi-hat stand(made by Mapex), so i decided to sell that set unless you find a solution for all these problems i'm having.

First of all: sorry to hear about your problems.
Second: Except for the rim, would it be possible to just replace the screws?
Third: When I bought my Roland kit, which both ( a TD-12 and a TD-20) cost a whole lot more, I had to buy separate stands for snare and hihat just to be able to play.
I use my 2box kit for live gigs and practise- That means I tear it down, set it up and tear it down again several times since I bought my kit a couple of months ago.
With this in mind I come to two alternatives - A) you happened to have a bad kit B) do you take proper care? I know from Roland kits people complain about clamps easily gets broken. I havenĀ“t had problems with that either.

Finally i decided not to sell the set. Even thought it's high cost is burdening me, i just love that 2box. However, i would like to ask about something that scared me and i was told by a 2box representative. Do i really need to change the sensors every year?? If yes, what amount of money are we talking about in order to change the entire set's sensors??

Drummer 81 not sure who you have been talking to. This kit has been designed by Swedes and you know how long their cars keep running. Do you seriously believe the guys at 2Box would design a kit where the sensors would need changing once a year. Please do not listen to stupid rumours. There are some drum manufacturers out there that are very scared of the 2Box system because they realise how good it is.
         Please play your kit and enjoy it, there is lots more to come.
