MORE ON DRUMSETS AND DRUMSET COMPARISONS
I thought I would add this information that I found in a chart which shows equivalencies between Remo and Evans heads. Post in this thread if you know of any updates that need to be made to the chart either for new heads or discontinued heads.
Also if you know about Aquarian heads then lets see those equivalencies too. If we all keep a full difinitive list up to date I think it will be very helpfull for any drummers who are wondering about head selection.
Heres the list:
Toms/Snare
Evans J1 = Remo Diplomat - 10mil Etched (7.5mil effective)
Evans G1 = Remo Ambassador - 10mil Clear/Coated
Evans EC1 = No Remo equivalent - 10mil Clear/Coated w/Edge Control
Evans GPlus = Remo Ambassador X - 12mil Clear/Coated
No Evans equivalent = Remo Vintage A - 2-ply 7.5- and 3-mil Polyester Film Coated
Evans G2 = Remo Emperor - 2 x 7mil Clear/Coated
Evans Onyx = Remo Ebony Suede Emperor - 2 x 7.5mil Matte Black Coated
Evans EC2 = Remo Pinstripe - 2 x 7mil Clear/Coated w/Edge Control
Evans Hydraulic = No Remo equivalent - 2 x 7mil Clear/Blue/Black, Oil Filled
Evans EC Resonant = No Remo equivalent - 10mil w/Edge Control
Snare/Snare Side
Evans Power Center = Remo Controlled Sound - 10mil Coated w/5mil Reinforcement Dot
Evans Genera = Remo Powerstroke 3 - 10mil Coated w/Overtone Control Ring
Evans EC1 Reverse Dot = No Remo equivalent - 14mil w/Edge Control & Reinforcement Dot
Evans Genera HD = Remo Powerstroke 4 - 1 x 7.5mil, 1 x 5mil w/Overtone Control Ring
Evans EC Reverse Dot = No Remo equivalent - 1 x 6.5mil, 1 x 10mil w/Edge Control & Reinforcement Dot
Evans Snare Side Hazy 200 = Remo Diplomat Snare Side - 2mil Hazy
Evans Snare Side Hazy 300 = Ambassador Snare Side - 3mil Hazy
Bass
Evans EQ4 = Remo Powerstroke 3 - 10mil Clear w/Overtone Control Ring
Evans EMAD = No Remo equivalent - 10mil Clear w/EMAD Damping
Evans EMAD Onyx = No Remo equivalent - 10mil Matte Black Coated w/EMAD Damping
Evans EQ3 = Remo Powerstroke 4 - 2 x 6.5mil w/Overtone Control Ring & Removable Muffle Ring
Evans EMAD2 = Remo Powersonic - 1 x 6.5mil, 1 x 10mil w/EMAD Damping
Bass Resonant
Evans Resonant Black = No Remo equivalent - 7.5mil Smooth Black
Evans REMAD = No Remo equivalent - 7.5mil Smooth Black w/Overtone Control Ring & Offset Hole

Is that from the Evans card thingy? I picked one of those up last time I was at the shop. Good post.
Cheers guys, it was actually one I found online. I have only used Evans heads and my knowledge of them is limited but I wanted to see what differences the Remo heads have and then I came across this, I just wanted to make sure it was all up to date and correct and I really hope it will be of use to others as it is to me.

I used remo forever but use Evans now . They come out with the best stuff. Remo seems to just plug along
I was just reading through a thread in the reviews section about Aquarian heads, I'm really intrigued to try some out but I don't know any shops local to me that sells them, however there is this wonderful invention I could use...I believe they call it...'the internet'?!?.

Wow a sticky? That great guys - I just know that this helped me alot so i hope it will help others.
You guys help me so much in this place so I guess this is a way of me trying to pay it forward or something, I certainly feel like I get more help in this place than i give to others.

Now this is some awesome info.
Thank you for putting this up JSB.
Chart is wrong. A vintage Ambassador is a 2 ply head. 7.5 mil+3 mil.
The Gplus equivalent is an Ambassador X
