Kikbrik or Evans EQ Pad Muffler ?

Does anyone have some experience with both systems ?

So far I've always used the old swing era trick. I want to improve my setup.

I like pillows, towels, tshirts, and sandbags.

A down/soft pillow with a brick/sandbag for a tight sound.

For a 24" bass drum I have been playing out with I folded a blanket over several times and laid it so that when I put the front head back on it would be lightly resting on both heads. A few pieces of tape to keep it in place, put the front head back on...works a treat for a "controlled boom" type of kick drum.

I personally find most "kick drum muffling systems" to be kind of frustrating/confusing/ineffective.

Exactly. And they cost too much to even bother with, IMHO.
not that it is crazy expensive, it is just crazy expensive for something that does the ob of a tshirt with a brick on it...
