Positive aspects of the product (pros): Amazing tone, tunes easily, no bad overtones.
Cons: A little expensive.

These heads are amazing, they have the best tone I've ever heard from a set of tenors. My line plays Yamaha Field Corps tenors, we use the older, more shallow models. These heads, when properly tuned up, really do wonders for a set of tenor players.
We tune the 4 drum (13") to a D and up in scale from there, and they just cut through anything.
These heads can really withstand the high tuning better than Remo Pinstripes or Suedes. They are thicker, so naturally, they get a warmer tone than most heads too. I recommend 130%

Positive aspects of the product (pros): strong head with great projection, stays in tune well, nice warm sound
Cons:

This head is one the GREATEST tenor heads ever produced. The sound quality is excellent at any tuning range, They will cut over a large band and durability is unbelieve! These heads will last along time also if you budget is alittle week. The smooth white finish makes a professional look for new and old drums. Get the mxt today for you tenor line

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Projection, Durability, Nice overall tone
Cons: heads get dirty very easily

I've Used Remo pinstripes and renaissance off and on for the past 10 years teaching. So I figure 10 years is a good year to make a change. Let me tell you I love the way these heads sound they cut through the band amazingly... which is no small feat in my band we march 415. These heads if tuned properly can sing out wonderfully and are very strong. The spock sound great and pops like crazy. the sustain is nice not to much and not too little. Also you can really crank these heads up and still maintain good tone and durability. my only grip is that i noticed they heads get dirty very quickly if you tenor line has "literally" dirty hands or mallets. other than that I highly recommend these heads.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great depth of sound
Cons: Haven't found any yet.

I'm stuck with using 6-8-10-12-13 tenors, and it's often difficult to get great tone from the upper drums in a "small block" set of tenors. When you crank the 8" drum high enough to be playable, it's often pitched too high, with a really thin voice.


The Evans MX Whites seem tailor made for the application, though. Even under moderately high tension, there's still some lower-end "body" to the sound coming from the head. Using these heads allows me to get a nice warm sound that I could only previously achieve with larger drums.


They sound great. I can't recommend them strongly enough for anyone using "small block" tenors.
