All heads were tuned at the same exact tension (88) using a DrumDial. Bottom head is a standard Aquarian CCSN14 Classic Clear Snare Side.
The audio was recorded using a matched pair of AKG C414 for overheads, a Shure SM57 for the snare and a AKG D112 for the bass drum.
The video was filmed using a Canon Eos 70D for front view and a Canon Eos Rebel T3i for overview.
Thank you for watching!

Thank You for a well put together vid demoing the heads 👌💯

[@georgebaggy]

Remo is too ringy, Evans is too dead, Aquarian is just right.

[@zac8084]

None of these stand out. So many of them also sound super similar

[@JazzyJonas]

I'm surprised at how good the triple threat sounds. I may get one and just use it for the rest of my life lol

[@TheJoaovicente]

Triple threat just checks all boxes for me. Not too ringy, the response of a single ply, and durability to last your whole life... What more can you ask for?

[@donsak111]

Focus x power dot is crazy good

[@karlsballs]

This is crazy, I love the Jack Dejohnette...but then I like the Triple Threat! 2 completely different heads but they both sound great!

[@sambrantdrums9622]

I've been waiting for an aquarian version for so long. Im sooooo happy you came out with this!!

[@ryryssong14]

Finally someone gives Aquarian a well deserved comparison. Hi- Energy is always my favorite for wood snares and Texture coated for metal snares

[@nevingrid2906]

On paper the triple threat in my mind should be a terrible head, but my ears tell me it's one of the best drum heads I've ever heard. I'm going to put one on my snare! 🥁🔥

[@pfunnk14]

The Jack dejohnette, studio x and performance II are my personal faves. Nice tone, no overtones, nice punch and still have that desirable snap. I still think I like remos and Evans for snare heads though. But these videos are amazing. Super informative.

[@rhythmista7707]

I just purchased a texture coated not knowing what to expect. After hearing it in this video, I'm glad I did, and will be using it on my next session, along with the matching snare side head..👍

[@davidrandall5743]

This has to be the best Aquarian snare head comparison video out there, thanks guys!

[@jamisonfrench]

Aquarian fan all around. With that said.. whatever that New Orleans Special head is doing different.. I LOVE it!

[@tmaddrummer]

Many, many thanks my Canadian Drum Brothers, your passion for excellence is greatly appreciated! Thanks and Blessings!!!

[@a-8702]

I haven't played many Aquarian products, but I love the sound of a lot of those heads, particularly the New Orleans one and the Triple Threat. I owned the Triple Threat once and it is a super durable head and it sounded really fat.

[@rayfrazier8657]

Thank you & your staff for the great work,time & money you put into this video. It is by far the best comp video out there. All 3 comp videos are great. You can really hear the difference in heads on all 3 videos.

[@danielschwarz5335]

Nice job ! I really like Aquarian heads, so it's nice to have a decent comparison in the web. Love the Super2 snare head in the video by the way.

[@acidbath3226]

i like the reflector for some reason but I also like the triple threat

[@georgebirddrums]

Can’t tell you how useful these vids have been. But would love an Aquarian kick head comparison
