The Evans B14ECSRD is a controlled sound but with resonance and sensitivity at all tuning and dynamic ranges. The EC Snare head combines two plies of film (6.5 mil external, 10 mil internal) with Evan's 'Edge Control' technology to eliminate the mid-range frequencies that muddy up the mix, leaving crisp highs and deep lows. The reverse dot version lends added durability and accentuated attack without choking the overall sound.
