Product Description

Snare/tom drum head with a 14" diameter.
The world's most resistant Mylar heads
Two free-floating plies of 10-mil Mylar film were used to create this design.
Many of today's hardest hitting Rock drummers prefer the 5-mil reverse black dot because it produces consistent focused warm tones.

Questions & Answers

Is 14 inches the same as 14? I'm not too familiar with this, but the drum rim is exactly 14 inches in diameter. 5 inches. Thanks. ?

To tell you the truth, I've never heard of a 14. Any drum manufacturer can make a snare drum with a diameter of 5 inches. If you took 14 measurements, you'd get 14. 5. I'm guessing your drum is a 14-inch model. My snare drum and one of my floor toms are both 14-inch drums, as measured from the inside rim. It appears to be close to 14 inches when measured from the outside of the rim. Try taking a measurement straight across the drum, from one side's inside to the other's inside.

What's the total number of heads?

One 14" drum head is included in the price.

Selected User Reviews For Remo Emperor X Coated Snare Drum Head - 14 Inch

I didn't think it would be as good as it was
3/5

I usually use Evans heads, but I wanted to try something different. I like the sound of a high-pitched rim shot on my snare drum, so I like to tune it high. And I'm not getting it with this snare. I tuned it exactly as I had previously tuned other heads, but even after high tuning, it still sounds damp. It's almost as if they're covered in moon gels. Instead, use a power stroke 4 if you want to remo. But my favorites are Evans G2, EC reverse dot, and genera dry.

THE FINEST and most versatile snare drum head on the market! Despite the fact that I alternate between REMO and Evans on my toms (batter heads), the Remo Emperor X is my A1A go-to
5/5

Every time you go to a show (of any kind), the head supports low/vintage (BFSD- You can play all of your favorite 311 tunes with a similar "pop" by tightening it up SNUG! I'm a sassy, pocket-sized criminal. I'm a rock drummer, and I adore the durability, versatility, and consistent response (even when a new one is on the way). You will not be disappointed if you give this head a shot.

This is a one-of-a-kind drum set
4/5

Take note of the following: br>This is a big head. incredibly thick It's ideal for musicians who perform in small venues and require low volume and a nice projecting tone. On two snares, I've got it. It works well on both (8x14 custom) and (Ludwig copper 8x14). It works well in the studio as well. There are obvious reasons for this.

Pop that makes you happy
5/5

This is one of the best heads you can get, especially if you play heavy music, if you take the time to tune your snare. After playing a Mapex Chromium metal snare, I was thinking about getting a new snare. Instead of buying a new snare, I went with a friend's recommendation and ordered the Emperor head, which I installed on a low-cost snare. Yamaha's wooden snare is at the end of the line. The result is a satisfying pop after cleaning, waxing, tuning, and dampening the overtones. br>br>While the price is a few dollars higher than a Remo Ambassador, I believe it is well worth it.

It's a thic boi, in case you didn't notice
3/5

A drumhead is, without a doubt, a unit. For a month, I used and tinkered with it. Has a big center hit and a strong rim shot. The problem was that I assumed it would still work for my drumming. The center hit is nice, but there's so much mass moving around that being expressive becomes difficult. br>br>Update: I changed the head to a steel Tama slp and cranked it up until it was just right for the table. It now has a more controlled tone to it. You'll be fine if you get it tight.

Snare drum head with a good tone
4/5

It took me some time to adjust it and break it in, but it now sounds fantastic. This is the snare for you if you enjoy hard rock or heavy metal. It has a distinct pop sound to it, and it comes across as very raw!.

Heads up! Head with a five-star rating With a center dot, it's a two-ply paper
5/5

Coated. This is a very tough head. Rock/metal and heavy-handed players will love this guitar. I've never broken one of these, and I always use them on my 14x8.

There isn't enough action or range in this game
3/5

drab "One Hit Wonders" will love this. The beat is similar to that of a heavy rock song. However, do not expect this head to appear- show off your dexterous, stylish finesse playing This is a step up from the Remo medium Black Dot. For the time being, I'm going to go back and put this head away.
