So, I put this head on my Starphonic Aluminum snare and got the sound I’ve been dreaming about. I tuned it very high, and the sound is a perfect combination of dark and clear. It has a surprising depth to it, even at such high tuning.
When I smash a rimshot, high-tuned heads usually hit your ears and head in a harsh way. But with this head, the rimshot feels completely different. I can feel it in my chest, almost like standing in front of a bass drum when it kicks.
I never thought a drumhead could behave like this when tuned so high.
Best buy of the year, for sure.
