Re: Remo Coated Ambassador X
I absolutely love them. I know many of you are not fond of DW, but these heads put these drums exactly where I want them. They feel great under the stick as well. Im sold. I have a Yamaha Maple custom snare from the 90's. I want to try the X14 on that next. Cant find one locally.

How do you have the toms tensioned? Very tight, medium tight, medium, or slack?

Re: Remo Coated Ambassador X
Id say medium. Bottom head just about same. Maybe a touch higher. The floor toms are a bit lower, but above wrinkle. Never have my 10 and 12 toms on this kit sounded better. I dig the response. Ive been using slack tuned 2 plys for a while. These have pop, and nice tone to them. I think I will be using them on this kit for quite a while.

So they don't sound like ass?

I'll leave mine on for a bit and see if they grow on me then. Try the white suede heads sometime too. They're pretty nice. Warmer than clear, but brighter than coated.

Re: Remo Coated Ambassador X
Was thinking of going coated ambassador on my Yammy RC's. they are power toms tho. I tried it once but didn't care for the sound on that type of drum. That was a good decade ago. Clear ambassadors always sounded best. I use coated ambassadors on my other drums. Anyone like coated ambassadors on their RC's? Never tried the X's. might give them a whirl on a few drums.
