What is the loudest brass instrument?

Answer 1

The snare drum is a shallow double-sided drum on the underside of which gut coils or metal springs are secured by a clamp, and which rattle against the underside when the drum is beaten, while the bass drum produces the loudest sound (unpitched) in the orchestra; the tambourine has a wooden hoop with a membrane stretched across it, and has metal discs suspended in the rim to make a jangling sound; a triangle is formed from a suspended triangular-shaped steel bar, played by striking it with a separate bar of steel - the sound produced can be clearly perceived even when played against a full orchestra; cymbals are two brass dishes struck together; castanets are two hollow shells of wood struck together; and the gong is a suspended disc of metal struck with a soft hammer.

from a recent honor band experience. the gong is really loud i was sitting in the nosebleeds about 500 feet from stage and then the gong solo. at the end my ears were ringing & second has to be timpani same thing happened but i think the gong can take more without breaking if you hit the timpani hard enough the drum head will break.
