I am using O-rings as well as a little piece of paper towel taped with masking tape to the batter head. I feel it helps reduce the unwanted vibrations produced by the snare drum.
Please note, it is crucial to tune your snare drum correctly. That means the resonant head must be tuned before the batter head. I am using the stock resonant heads on both snares, and they do just fine. If you are using a snare drum with less than 8-lugs, I would suggest upgrading your drum.
