Which snare drum should I buy?
A snare drum that has a width of 5.5″ or less will have a tight pop. If you're looking for a loud, open snare drum, go with a fat snare; one with a width of 6.5″ or more. A common, snare drum diameter is 14″. If you're looking for a naturally lower pitched snare drum go with one larger than 14″.Jan 19, 2021

How do I know what size snare to buy?
As a general rule, the smaller the diameter of the drum is, the higher its pitch. A snare with a 15” diameter will sound deep and fat, while a 10” diameter will produce a thinner, sharper sound. Furthermore, the deeper in size a snare gets the more body it has, though this has little influence on the pitch.
What size snare drum is best?
If you're unsure, a good place to start is with a 14” diameter and a 5” (or similar) depth. As I mentioned above, a good snare should be able to accommodate a wide tuning range, and so a good, mid-sized snare should easily be able to reach the highest and brightest, as well as lowest and fattest sounds you'll need.
