what kick drum heads have you guys found that sound best for recording?

i'm replacing heads on my kick and i have just never found the perfect head for tracking idk why, if any of you guys have any suggestions let me know.
thanks.
 
Remo Powerstroke 3 is a favourite on here.
Remo Ebony Pinstripe is good for a really clicky sound. Aquarian Super Kick II is apparently a bit thicker sounding.
 
Emad are great sounding heads. Powerstroke 3 is what I got when skinning my kit recently, sounds great with the falam pad, I've been very happy with it.
 
Bad luck here with 24 inch EMAD. Sounds plastic as fuck. Much better with EQ3
 
the sound im looking for is more along the lines of a august burns red kick drum tone, so im kinda just thinking about picking up the powerstroke 3

whats your thoughts on this?
