I mounted this head on my Mapex Armory 16" floor tom.
The product looks beautiful (it blends amazingly with the aquamarine colour of my drumset) and, according to my taste, it sounds great. It delivers that typical '70s/'80s classic rock and hard rock sound, which are the genres I mainly play.
I've had it for a long time and still looks alright, it's a quality product and also resistant.
I would choose it for hard rock, not for jazz or softer genres (even if it still does the job just fine).

Very specific and interesting sound...
Anonymous 05.12.2014
I bought these heads for a very specific project I was working on. The fact that they look super cool is just a happy and welcome bonus. They offer a very fat, wet sound on toms that can give you great scope for exploring different recording techniques. Or if you just want to get a wet sounding head with loads of low end presence and just about enough punch to get by. It certainly won't be to everyone's taste but it's a very interesting sound, worth exploring. As an additional bonus they are extraordinarily easy to tune, and (as long as you're not a really heavy hitter) to keep in tune.

Tough Skin!

These Evans Hydraulic drum heads are built to last. They are tough and resilient due the double layer. I have two kits each with a complete set of these in a rehearsal room getting a daily bashing and haven't had need to change them in over a year. They have a nice dead but warm tone which is perfect in a rehearsal space and they sound good recorded too.

Evans Hydraulic Blue looks different and beautiful. When you put blue heads on all drums make you feel different.
This heads are for loud drummer only. If you have to play quietly this is not for you. Sounds good when you push harder. Short sustain, but enough. For rock and heavy music.
