AquarianSuper-2 Clear Drumhead 16 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Two-ply clear 16-inch floor tom head. For drummers who hit hard and want a deeper, shorter note with less ring.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rock and metal drummers wanting a fat, controlled floor tom
- Replacing a dented head on a hard-played 16-inch floor tom
- Live playing where long tom sustain muddies the mix
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Jazz players wanting open, singing floor tom sustain
- Light players who want maximum sensitivity and resonance
- Anyone needing a 16-inch resonant head for the underside
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Clear film
Brighter attack and more overtone than a coated head. Coated heads sound warmer and take brushes.
Detail 03
16 in. size
Standard floor tom size. Larger heads move more air, so pitch drops and the note gets longer.
Detail 04
Batter side head
Mounts on the playing surface. The bottom resonant head controls pitch and decay separately.
Detail 05
$33.99
Mid-market for a 16-inch head. Two-ply heads cost more than single-ply but last considerably longer under hard sticking.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Batter head only. The resonant head for the underside is a separate purchase.
- 02Two-ply heads need less muffling. Pull the tape or gel off first.
- 03A drum key is required to tension it and is not included.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What is the difference between Super-2 and a single-ply head?
Super-2 uses two layers of film. That kills some overtone, drops the perceived pitch, and survives hard hitting far longer than one layer.
02Clear or coated for a floor tom?
Clear gives more attack and brightness. Coated is warmer with a softer front edge and works with brushes. This one is clear.
03Will this fit a 16-inch floor tom from any brand?
Yes. Drum head sizing is standardized by shell diameter, so any 16-inch floor tom takes a 16-inch head.
04Do I still need moongel with this head?
Usually not. The second ply already shortens sustain. Tune it first and only add muffling if the ring still bothers you.
