Strong match

Who this is for

  • Live rock and pop gigs where the kick needs punch, not ring
  • Drummers tired of taping pillows and blankets inside the shell
  • Miked stages where a short, focused attack sits cleanly in the mix

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Open, resonant kick tones with long sustain
  • Drummers who want to dial muffling in themselves, from zero
  • 20- or 22-inch kicks, this is cut for 24

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 01

2-ply, 7-mil over 5-mil (12-mil total)

Heavier than a single-ply head: fewer overtones, shorter sustain, and it survives a hard beater far longer.

Detail 02

Subsonic dampening rings

Muffling is built into the head, so the low ring is controlled before you add a single pillow.

Detail 03

Coated surface

The coating takes a little top-end off the attack, giving a drier thump than a clear film of the same weight.

Detail 04

Impact patch included

Reinforced circle where the beater lands, the spot that normally wears through first.

Detail 05

Batter head

This is the beater-side head, not the front head with the port hole.

Detail 06

24 inch

Matches a 24-inch shell diameter. More air moved than a 22: lower fundamental, more volume, slightly slower attack.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01A bass drum takes two heads; the front resonant head is a separate buy
  2. 02You need a drum key, and tension the rods in a star pattern
  3. 03New film stretches, so retune after the first hour of playing

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do I still need a pillow inside the drum?

Usually not. The subsonic rings handle most of the ring on their own. If you want an even deader thud, add a small pillow just touching the head.

02Is this the front head or the beater head?

Beater side. It is a batter head, and the reinforced impact patch sits where the beater strikes.

03Will it fit a 22-inch kick?

No. This one is cut for a 24-inch drum. The Powersonic also comes in 18, 20 and 22 inch.

04Coated or clear, what changes?

The coating rolls off some of the attack's top end for a drier, warmer note. A clear head of the same build sounds brighter and more open.
