Performance II Series
The Performance II is a two ply head manufactured with Aquarian’s Vacuum Tuned Process which eliminates air bubbles and wrinkles between the two plies. The two 7mil plies are only sealed at the edges which tame unwanted overtones and puts a focus the low frequencies. The PFII is designed for loose tuning to deliver that low, fat, punchy tom-tom sound that were a big part of classic rock and roll records. Frequency control that adds focused power is built right into this head. The PFII is a great head to use to upgrade the sound of low priced kits.

The Aquarian Difference
Incorporated into all Aquarian heads is a patented 360-degree Safe-T-Loc™ Hoop that eliminates slippage and detuning. The Aquarian Hoop makes it virtually impossible for a head to pull out or pucker, resulting in more consistent tuning with increased resonance.
Aquarian’s exclusive multi-ply vacuum tunning process helps reduce tone killing air pockets and dead spots by removing more of the air caught between plies. The result is a 2 ply head that is more responsive and resonant. The thickness of the drumhead film is a determining factor in how fast the head will vibrate. The thinner the material, the faster it vibrates, producing higher frequencies and more noticeable overtones. Thicker drumhead film generates lower relative frequencies. All of our heads are made exclusively from Aquarian’s ultra-responsive 3,5,7 and 10mil thick NuBRITE drumhead film.
The number of plies used to make a drumhead will affect the response and the timbre of a drum. Combining more plies together adds more mass resulting in fewer overtones that adds warmth, focus, and durability. Aquarian heads come in One, Two, Three, and Hybrid ply combination models.
