The Perfect Companion for Your Super-Kick

Add clean low end back to your Aquarian Super-Kick or other modern bass drum resonant head with the Aquarian Regulator. This 10-mil single-ply head features Aquarian's Floating Muffling System: an internal foam ring that keeps unwanted resonance from muddying your tone. The 4-3/4" offset hole dries out the sound a little and also provides access for a microphone and extra damping materials if you need them.

Aquarian: building better drumheads since 1980

Roy Burns and Ron Marquez founded Aquarian Drumheads on the philosophy that the drummer is the most important person, and that the aspiring player is the future of their business. And Sweetwater is proud to carry their brand today. Prior to forming Aquarian Drumheads, Roy was a world-famous big band drummer, teacher, and clinician. Ron was a systems analyst and manufacturing plant manager. The combination of Roy's drumming experience and Ron's technology background has helped Aquarian Drumheads to develop numerous innovative products, as well as a unique scientific approach to manufacturing.

THUD

So, stupid me, trying to cut out a port hole in my 22" reso bass drum head and I slip...... and, it ripped. Luckily, I already needed one for my 20" kicker also. Other than the fact these had a port already in them I only ordered them because they were the cheapest. Tuned the tension rods a full turn past finger tight and THUD! I could not believe how wonderful they sound. There is a foam a dampening ring built inside also. All I have is a tiny little baby blanket in for extra muffling and an Evans strike pad on the batter. The 22" bass drum never sounded as good as my 20" but now it goes toe to toe with it...... until I put this head on the 20 also. The 20" still is the #1 cannon but the 22 a close second now but the sound quality out of both have far exceeded my expectations. I planned on getting EMADs for both down the road but they may not need them now as I am quite satisfied with the sound quality, I get even with my stock batter heads. Amazing what these little heads are capable of.
