It does depend on the situation.
Sometimes I like blondes.....sometimes I like brunettes. Every once in a while (when inebriated) I liked red heads.
Of course...I married a blond.
So.....Maple.

I haven't played a large variety of snares, but from my experience with birch, maple and metal, I think if I had to pick one, I'd go with my Ludwig Acrolite.

Premier Genista - Pearl Masters - Primus custom snare - Zildjian A Custom- DW 5000 pedal - Zildjian Zack Starkey sticks

I prefer the sharp crack and ping of a metal snare as of this moment right now as I type this out.
If I had to choose just one ?
Maple............

Metal snares cause I like the snap, crackle pop that I do not get from my maple snare.
Brass
Sonor Drums/Pork Pie Snare/Sabian Cymbals/DW Hardware/Promark/Remo
I have both Brass & Maple 8" deep Pearl Free Floating snares. Have to say the Brass is far better.

Metal .I've had a few very good wood snares but I always go back to the metal snares . My favorite at the moment is the Pearl Chad Smith signature snare . I would love a Supraphonic but I can't bring myself to pay that much for one now .

lol It's posted somewhere on this forum....
My wife finally put me on a NO BUY list for snares some time ago (after I got the Pearl Power Piccolo).
Since then....I've purchased only one more snare. But it came with a kit...and she never said I couldn't get another kit! (I have 8)

My every day go to snare is a 1960's Ludwig. I do like the sound of the metal but I am also considering making a wood picolo snare.

From the audience side I prefer the sound of metal snares (99% of bands I see are playing rock), from the throne I'm not so keen on them and wooden shells seem much easier on the ear.
