I use 2 x 24” Pearl Signature Series bass drums. Ive had the outer heads for yrs. I can’t remember literally blowing out an outer or bottom bass drum head, in my life. 100’s of top heads, even dozens of bass heads, but at 56 I finally heard my right bass sounding off. Upon inspection the head was ripped across! I must admit, using all Evans hydraulic heads in my kit, except the twin 24” bass drums, where I use Evans G2 clear heads, I find pairing an outer or bottom, head, especially when porting the head, and I usually ambassador clear bottoms. Although my left bass is ported, I chose to tune this head, and leave it alone, This Remo Ambassador Class, 24” sounds wicked, and I’m no newbie to Remo. I use remo pinstripes on all my roto toms, I use Remo colored pinstripes on 2 concert Tom’s 12,13”, and an 18”, single headed gong Tom. I also have 3 rocket Toms I use Remo Ambassador heads on. I have a full set of 11 extra Remo Pinstripe heads for certain gigs, to replace my hydraulic heads. Remo makes awesome heads, I find their resonant heads unmatched on my 6ply maple Signature Series, drum kit, Pearl.

Needed a decent 15" 2ply head and this was about the best I could find. Combined this with a Remo Muffl system on https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002YK8X8/ on the topside and a Gibraltar external tone control device https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002F71P0/ on the bottom to really dial in a great floor tom sound without the nasty overtones.

I've played all kinds of brands, plies, coatings, etc.; I always come back. The Emperors are trusty batter heads with the right amount of sing. While I haven't tried them this way, I've heard they make excellent resonate heads too.

Remo Emperor drum heads are a complete no brainer for me. They tune up nicely, are durable and record well.The clear version are great on toms if you’re after a contemporary sound, with good attack. For a little more roundness and warmth go for the coated version. They’re also really nice on bass drums, however I do prefer an Ambassador Coated or CS Dot on my snare drums.

Too much ring with the ambassador on the other side. I spread out 4 cotton balls and threw them in there. Too dead then. Took out 2 and it was just right. So I put 2 in all my remaining toms.. 10-12-14-16. I thought I would need more the bigger the toms got but no. Perfect amount fullness for my ears

Clear Emperors have been my go-to batter heads for years. It is thick enough to take a beating, while being thin enough to resonate to a nice full, warm sound. I like to pair these with Clear Diplomats for extra resonance. I find that if I use Clear Ambassadors with these that there's more punch/attack, but I lose quite a bit of resonance.

Remo heads are frickin' awesome. I've been using Remo since 1979. I should warn.. I use emperors on both top and bottom. I've chose to use smooth white emp's on top and clear emps on the bottom. Check it out.. this setup has a nice warm sound.

Emperor Clear Drum Heads by Remo Inc. is probaly the best combination of the quality and price. I've used these drum heads for my tom-toms and the bass drum for more than 10 years. They are sturdy and versatile. Well tuned they can make your drums to sound decently. Even cheap drum set! I would recommend these drum heads for drummers, who aren't sure what drum heads to choose. Like I said, they are versatile and, in my opinion, they are good for a vast variety of musical styles.
