Evans EMAD2

EMAD2 used with a EMAD kick pad helps my 20 inch Custom Stone bass drum all the punch it needs to be on the money!

Evans EMAD 2 20” batter head

I have 2 of these one on my 5-pc. Yamaha custom stage Birch & on my Gretsch Catalina 4-pc walnut glaze jazz kit. They both sound great, plenty of punch & attack has built in slot for dampeners, Easy to tune and very durable.
Great for Blues,Rock,Funk or anything in between!
I also have used my DW9000 double pedal on my Yamaha kit.
I also have Evans on the resonant heads with port hole.
Both sound great as is or miced up.

Emad 20" batter head

These are great sounding heads! I have one on a 20" kick and also on a 22" kick. Very punchy and tight. They will go on my kick drums from now on.
Rated 5/5

Legit

After reading another review here that said this is perfect for vintage sets, I got one for my Rogers Holiday. And...he ain't wrong. I have a Powerstroke 3 on my Gretsch, and I had an Aquarian Superkick on my Rogers. Love both of them, and you really can't go wrong with any of them. But I decided to try this, and I like it a lot.
Rated 5/5

Deep, punchy goodness

I already play high end drums. But it's always nice that you can extract more sound and depth with a great sounding head. It's very responsive, the extra muffling ring is nice for more damping, and the inclusion of a beater patch is great as well.
