Evans Level 360

There has been fantastic feedback for the improvements the new Evans Level 360 Heads have made to the range. 2014 has also seen the 360 come to the Bass Drum Heads. All of our Evans heads are now shipping with Level 360.

Level 360 is a new method of construction which make the head flatter and level even before it is tuned. The Level heads are actually able to make a tone even before any tension is put on the head giving you quicker and more reliable tuning and refining.

Is Evans or Remo better?

Lastly, Evans lay somewhere in the middle between Aquarian and Remo. Evans definitely makes better coatings than Remo but still comes up short when compared side by side with Aquarian.

Are Remo heads good?

The coated Remo Ambassador is one of the most popular snare drum heads in the world, and is very responsive with both sticks and brushes. These drumheads also perform very well on toms, giving a balanced tone with lots of depth and sustain.
