I know... I will do this, I'm mainly concerned that -- since the kick has only one head -- that the air flow out of the kick won't be concentrated / focused enough coming out of the drum.

I need to just experiment... but I'll need to come up with a more versatile mounting system. I was planning on just choosing a location and permanently hanging it there, but I think I might need to build a frame and mount it on a stand so I can move it around. Another problem is that my little iso room is 6' x 7' so the kick is right up against the wall and there isn't much room back there.
