The right sound for any situation
Size: 20 Inch
The ability to have 3 dampening levels, and the ease of tuning the Onyx style heads makes this combination great for on the fly tuning. Gigging musicians will get a lot of mileage out of these heads and be ready for any room. You can get anything from super tight 0 sustain machine gun double kicks with the big ring in to room filling boomy stuff with the ring left off and the reso head tuned correctly. I'm never buying another kick head again for my own gigging set. Unless I'm assembling some sort of specialized set for recording purposes and it requires a very specific kick sound, like a calf skin on a 26" or something... It's going to be these heads. Only reason I didn't rate durability was because I've only had it a minute... But my other Onyx heads are durable as all hell, so I expect the same from this one. ... show more

Tuned almost right out the box
Size: 20 Inch
I’ve been playing a clear emad for about 15 years. Thought I’d try this since my 20x20 bass drum can be a tad boomy. This thing sounds amazing and was so easy to tune for me. Usually it takes me like an hour to tune it to get some nice attack. This was like right after finger tightening, gave one or two turns to tighten and it sounded perfect. And I feel like it plays faster as well. Like it has better response or something. I probably just have it tighter than I’m used to. But beyond stoked on this onyx head ... show more

Fantastic !
Size: 20 Inch
After a few years of using the Aquarian "super kick 2" I decided to make a change to a single ply head, I chose this onyx by evans, First of all this head has amazing Punch! Right in the chest that you can feel! It works best at low tunings and use the small ring insert, The durability is very good for a single ply head and I have just ordered my second one after almost a year of use on the first, Gigging every weekend and also practicing twice a week this head has held up very well, I do recomend the use of a kick pad which I use to get a bit more durability out of the head, I used and recomend the Aquarian double thin kick pad. I am not a light player, I play heel up and kick hard, this is a great sounding punchy head with great attack and a real sharp deep punch, highly recomended, Great Job Evans ! ... show more

Evans head's are the best

Worth every single penny. Been a drummer for 30 years and hands down the Evans EMAD Onyx Bass Drum head is beyond expectations! Thank you Evan's RobW ... show more
