I’m interested in the Evans Hydraulic series for my kit. Is there any significance between colors?
Yes there is. Ply thickness is defined by color:
Black 6.5mil + 7.5mil
Red & Blue 7mil + 7mil
A thicker ply provides you with more durability, volume/body, decreased sensitivity, and increased attack. A thinner ply provides you with with less durability, volume, and attack, but an increase in sensitivity.
For many, drumhead tuning can be a frustrating, time-consuming experience. Thankfully, the Evans Hydraulic series heads take much of the guesswork out of the dark art of tuning, all while giving you the fattest and roundest sounding tone. For those who would rather spend their time playing, the ease of tuning provided by Hydraulic heads’ unique oil injected two-ply construction allows them to do just that.
