Aquarian Drumheads is a percussion company based in Anaheim, California, founded in 1980 by jazz drummer Roy Burns and Ron Marquez. The company began producing its own line of drumheads in 1987 and has since developed a reputation for engineering-focused innovation in the drumhead space.

The catalog spans a wide range of batter and resonant heads for snare, tom, and bass drum applications. Signature products include the Super-Kick series of bass drum heads, the Triple Threat snare head, the Response 2 and Performance II tom heads, the Hi-Energy snare head, and the electro-acoustic inHEAD, which adds a built-in pickup to a standard drumhead. Aquarian is known for construction details such as the Sound Curve collar and the Safe-T-Loc hoop design, aimed at improving tuning stability and seating.

The company operates as an independent, family-run manufacturer and competes primarily with Remo and Evans in the drumhead market. It maintains an active artist roster across rock, jazz, metal, and session drumming, and distributes internationally through regional partners.

Aquarian has 26 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Drum Set Accessories, Drums, and Drum Hardware Parts. Their gear is featured by 22 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Metal, and Pop. Notable users include John Hoffman, Roger Taylor, and Tracy Broussard.
