The TCFX with PowerDot is a coated, medium weight, single-ply head with a vented muffling ring tucked into the hoop. The vented muffling design eliminates unwanted ring while maintaining a fat tone on tom toms and creating a sensitive and articulate response from the snare drums. The addition of a small, thin Reverse PowerDot under the head adds, even more focus to heavy backbeats. No external muffling needed! Perfect for close-up miking—live or in the studio.
