Snare head replacement

[bvon]

Hey whats good doodz. I'm in the market for a new snare head, but have no idea what i want to get. Well I know what I want to get, but it has been discontinued. I play a Pearl 13 x 3 Steel Piccolo with an Aquarian Power-House head.

Snare
Pearl Piccolo 13" x 3" Steel Snare Drum - Find the largest selection and guaranteed lowest prices at Musician's Friend.
Head
Aquarian Power-House Snare Drumhead - Find the largest selection and guaranteed lowest prices at Musician's Friend.

I don't know if any other people on here have played with that head, but it gives a really high sounding pop. I would like to keep playing that head but cant seem to find a new one to buy. Anybody have any suggestions for another head that might give me a similar sound?

Thanks

I recently bought a Remo Suede Emperor Black X and it sounds great, plus the remo suede's seem to last for a far while

I'm a big fan of the coated Powerstroke 3 and Controlled Sound heads on snares.

the thing i dont like about buying heads is that I cant just take my snare to the store and try out a bunch of different ones.
