Rogers Dyna-Sonic

The snare with a floating snare frame

The Dyna-Sonic suspends its snare wires in a separate frame that touches the head under controlled tension rather than being pulled across it, which gives an unusually even response at low volume. It is one of the few genuinely original snare designs of the twentieth century.
