How to choose
Choose Aquarian heads by the sound you want. Single-ply heads sound open and bright, while two-ply heads sound fuller and more controlled.
Beginner
If you are replacing heads for the first time, a Classic Clear head pack for your tom sizes is a simple, good-sounding upgrade over factory heads. Check your drum sizes before you buy, such as 10, 12 and 14 inch toms. Learn to tune each drum evenly around the lugs, and replace the snare batter head too, since it wears fastest.
Intermediate
If you want more control, try two-ply heads such as the Super-2 Clear on toms for a punchier, shorter sound that suits rock. Texture Coated heads give a warm, vintage feel for brushes. On the bass drum, the Force Bass and Performance II heads control boom, and a ported resonant head makes miking easier.
Expert
At a professional level, choose heads for each drum and each style. Studio-X heads help control overtones for recording, and Focus-X heads give a focused, dry sound. Match batter and resonant heads to get the sustain you want, and tune for the room and the microphones. Keep spare heads for gigs, and replace them before they lose tone, not after they break.

About Aquarian in Drum Department
This page shows the Aquarian range as it sits in our drum department. It is where almost all of our Aquarian stock lives, so everything below applies to the products listed on this page.
The drumhead has a huge effect on how a drum sounds. Aquarian heads are designed with specific tones in mind, from open and resonant to controlled and punchy, and they are made to hold their sound for a long time.
The range covers batter heads, which you hit, and resonant heads, which shape the tone and sustain on the other side. Aquarian also offers practical products such as the Super-Pad, which turns a bass drum into a quieter practice surface.
