Aquarian Regulator Black Resonant Kick Drum Head Black 20 in.

I purchased this drum head as a replacement for my previous one. I have used it only once and so far and so far good. Can't say enough great things about my customer service rep's attention to detail and knowledge of the all the drum products we discussed for consideration. I would definitely purchase this product again.

After having played with the stock resonant head of my ddrum, with a month-old tear between the port hole and the nearest edge, it was certainly time for an upgrade. From just the first hit of my bass drum pedal I noticed more low end, punch, and a tighter and more focused sound. Playing on it for a bit I felt a profound amount of added rebound without even touching the tuning of the batter head. This head feels great for double kick runs. On a side note, I noticed while putting the had on was that it was already mostly seated and ready to be tightened up out of the box. Absolutely fantastic head; I will be sure to recommend it to as many drummers as I can. If there is one thing I would change, I might make the port hole bigger so that 1) I can reach into the drum easier, and 2) I could perhaps fit a KickPort without having to expand the hole or make a new one.

Just put on my Pearl Export 22 Bass... Major improvement over the stock Pearl "logo'd" skin...(which,by the way ,costs more than this awesome head). Very happy with sound and projection and tone.

This head gives a lot of low end, and with a small pillow touching front and back softens the feel to perfection. Studio and large venue engineers consistently compliment the sound of the kick with this head. Let me assure you that I have used other heads on the same kit, and did not get the same response. Works best with the AQ batter head also.

As I don't play with a PA I have never had a resonant head with a hole in it before, but this one came in a pack with my Superkick II batter head, so I put it on and now will never go back to a solid head. It's so handy to be able to reach inside when you need to. I can tweak my sound so much easier now. Plus, it's a great head and sounds great. The built-in damping was a definite improvement and my bass sounds perfect.
