coating a whole drum shell with a layer of chrome surely has to have an affect on the shells weight. It takes very little weight to be added to a shell to change some tone. Now I'm not saying that the chroming makes it sound like a whole new drum, but I'd imagine it changes the sound. I do agree though that most of the sound differences would be caused by extra hardware and extra tension distribution due to the increase in lugs.
