Aquarian Hi-Frequency Drumheads for Bright Resonance and Clean Tom Response
The Aquarian Hi-Frequency Series is designed for drummers who want a brighter, more responsive drum sound with clean resonance and enhanced high-frequency overtones. Made with thin 7mil Nu-Brite film, these heads accentuate the upper frequencies of the drum, creating a clear and lively response. The clear Hi-Frequency model can be used as a batter head for sensitive playing or as a resonant bottom head. As a bottom reso-head, it helps toms produce a clean, choke-free response while bringing out the brighter side of the drum’s natural voice. For players who want both sound and visual impact, the Hi-Frequency Video Gloss Black and White models are ideal bottom heads for tom-toms. These 7mil resonant heads feature inverted Black and White Video Gloss finishes for a striking look while enhancing higher-frequency overtones. Black and White Video Gloss models are not recommended for batter head use.Key Features
