Good when you need it

For snare-side resonant heads the standard option is a Remo Ambassador or Evans Hazy 300, which are the ones to choose if in doubt. Occasionally I have found the thicker Remo Emperor (this one) or Evans Glass 500 is useful. On my very deep (14 x 10") snare it was a good choice for allowing very low tuning on both heads without too much snare buzz. I also found it useful with a tricky steel snare where I was looking to reduce resonant problems. However, when tuning another metal snare and at higher tunings it was not as appropriate as an Ambassador. Also note that some novices have confused a snare-side resonant head (the underneath one with the wires next to it) with a batter head (the top one that you hit). This is a resonant head.

Highly Recommended Head
Anonymous 03.02.2015
If you are looking for a durable and universal sounding resonant head the Remo 14" Resonant Head is what you are looking for. Compared to the single ply design of the Ambassador Head from Remo, The Emperor Head provides extra depth and durability. Since the Remo Emperor is comprised of two plys of skins in its manufacturing process, It offers an unparalleled complexity of tone and a huge amount of volume. Compared to other competitive branded the Remo Emperor resonant head offers superb longevity when it comes to covering a wide variety of musical genres. Affordable, universal and durable the Remo Emperor Resonant is the ideal resonant head.

Durable and nice low sound
Notan Storm 08.02.2016
It is the most long played head on my drum set. Usually I tune low my snare drum 14x6.5. To achieve this goal I use thick Remo Emperor Head.
Pros: Good Price, durable, nice sound, easy to tune.
Cons: None, but... it isn't suitable for high tuned share.
Play hard, play low, play eternally with Remo Emperor Heads.

Remo Reso Snare

High quality resonator head from Remo, coated.

This, plus a new remo top, has brought my old snare back to life.

I love it
Anonymous 28.09.2016
This is for me the ultimate snare head. I have one on all my snares.

It is strong a durable; I never managed to break one. I usually change it when too much of the coating in gone, so every 2~ years.

Remo 14" Emperor Reso. Snare Head
Tyron 14.03.2015
Always trusted Remo head - this is no exception. this item has great depth and strength.
Its got a loud volume output and an array of tones that you may be glad to have.

If you like resonator heads - this one does the trick to a high standard.

Great
Xavier_Lima 14.03.2024
Sounds great. I use if on a Yamaha RC Brass 14x6,5 to give it a fatter bottom end and a more controlled response without having to tune it high. If you want a lower tuning on the snare side head for a punchier sound, try these reso heads for sure.

Great Snare Head for low tuning
Philipp Atzwanger 07.07.2024
So I put this snare head onto my new Ludwig Universal 8“, which I wanted to tune low to get a strong and aggressive snare sound. Super easy to tune, has a good level of rebound (although at low tuning it is kind of soft to play). Overall, just great.
