The MX5 Snare Side Head from Evans is purpose-built for marching snares, delivering a soft yet rich tone with impressively low maintenance. Its dual-layer laminate construction of aramid fiber and polyester provides durability and resistance to delamination while promoting sensitivity. An overtone control ring helps eliminate unwanted overtones, allowing your snare to speak with clarity and definition. Evans' Level 360 collar ensures even tensioning and pitch across the playing surface.

Dual-Layer Laminate for Resonance and Durability

The MX5's aramid fiber and polyester laminate yields a head that's both resonant and durable. It's resistant to the stresses of outdoor use and intensive rehearsals yet provides a full, rich tone that projects. The 5-mil thickness finds a balance of sensitivity and durability that suits the demands of marching percussion.

Overtone Control Ring Enhances Articulation

A thin overtone control ring reinforces the edge of the MX5, eliminating unwanted overtones. This enhances the head's sensitivity and articulation, allowing your snare to speak with utmost clarity and definition. Notes have a tight, focused quality with minimal muddiness.

Level 360 Technology Ensures Even Tension

Evans' Level 360 collar allows for even tensioning and consistent pitch across the MX5's surface. The head seats securely on the bearing edge of the drum, with minimal slippage. This results in a drum that tunes up quickly and holds its pitch well, even during temperature or humidity changes.
