Evans 16" B16ONX2 Drum Head Onyx BK

I have these Evans Onyx drum heads on all my drums now, along with an Evans Hydrolic head on my snare! They are very durable. I've had them on now for about 2 years and not one of them have burst. They can take a right old battering. They give a much deeper sound that Remo ambassador heads and they are great for metal/rock drumming. I would recommend these heads to any customer looking for heads with durability, high performance and a deep tone. The matte black coating also looks very cool. Excellent heads for any drummer! I would highly recommend them.

The Onyx heads are really interesting play with. They obviously have a very dark, wet sound, but not as much as the Hydraulic range. There is still some nice treble in there and it gives a very nice balanced sound when tuned correctly. The textured coating also give you the opportunity to do some nice brushwork around the kit. It's not ideal in terms of versatility, but it's a great head for specific projects. If you're looking for something different for a side project, I would recommend them.

I have these heads on all my toms and they sound massive!
