Head combination Help!

Definitely! Typically, this will result in a very articulate attack but shorter/darker sustain. Which heads are you considering?
 
I wouldn't call Ebony Emperors bright. Probably a little darker than a clear Emperor, which are already darker than an Ambassador or the like (darker in this case meaning, basically, "more muffled"). Your combo should work very well for metal, hard rock, and other 'tweaked' drum sounds.
 
Thanks for you response. I am planning to have the Remo Ebony Emperor as my batter head for the toms and Evans EC resonant for the toms

If well tuned, that should sound great. Peace and goodwill.
 
Wow, I just posted a similar thing, but I want to do a G1 or Amb (clear) over an EC Reso. when I think "bright" I think single ply, like a G1, Amb, Classic Clear, and so on.
