Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Evans Min-EMAD (Externally Mounted Adjustable Damping) suppresses unwanted overtones, but retains the desired attack, tone, and feel. By linking the vibrating head with the counter hoop, the Min-EMAD removes frequencies by resisting the motion of the head.

Evans E-Rings are easy to use external overtone control rings that "float" on the surface of a drum head. They remove unwanted overtones and flatten the drum head's sound, allowing for easier tuning.

For over 40 years, Evans has been a pioneer of drum head manufacturing and design. Known for innovative designs such as EMAD, EC2S, and the Hydraulic series, Evans drum heads are made in the USA in a state of the art manufacturing facility. Acquired in 1996 by D’Addario and Company, the global leader in musical instrument accessories, the Evans brand is synonymous with quality and consistency.

This review is from: Evans MINEMAD Tom and Snare Damping (Electronics)

I ordered it and found out that the product doesn't improve the sound dampening at all. For heavey heads like remo power-stroke 3 I would not recommend, but if you have a thinner head that has alot resonance, then may it will work. Other than that, I would not waste my money on the product!
