From my experiences and personal choice, i would have to say, hands down, desi heads sound the nicest. They have a crisp warm feeling that remos can't even touch. Im not going to lie, when im playing for dance floors or baraats with music, hands down remo is better (depending on what desi head you have) because at that point the loudest wins, no one even cares what the drum sounds like. When im on stage i definitely prefer desi heads, theres just nothing else you can go with that will give you that sound. I've done some research in the past month on heads and i've actually come to a surprising conclusion


Loudness: AW&Sons >Remo Ambassador> MR > Gbc >Remo Diplomat


Crispness: AW&Sons > MR > GBC > Remo Ambassador > Others


I wasn't always a fan of AW&Sons due to a couple of crappy personal experiences but man was i wrong, a friend of mine has it on his and he let me play his drum and compare it to each of my dhols and it just couldn't compare.

Any kinds of desi drumheads (either brand or no brand) would sound good if it's thin like 5mm or 7 mm, and I wish that remo clear diplomat should sound like sharp and loud sound like GBC and/or MR due to a 7.5 mil

Any comparison between GBC, GBC Deluxe, or GBC Super Deluxe, either gray transparent or black transparent? ???
