Your head should have a fair amount of streach particularly the snare side head you can crank them up to achieve the sound you want. With that said, you need to get rid of the emporer X and put on a single ply ambassedor to get the sound that you want. the emporer x is not only two ply but has a muffling device taking all of the ring out of it. I Also I would change the top head before cranking the bottom head trying to achieve the sound with the Emporer X because you will never get there with that top head no matter how far you tune it up!
