Cymbal vote winning hi-hat cymbals. Meeting the demands of metal giant Thomas Haake you know they pack a punch. The Sabian AAX X-Plosion hi-hats are really bright cutting cymbals. The volume and projection of these 16 hats is huge with an incredibly clear and loud chick when using the pedal. When playing the X-Plosion hats open they produce a huge wave of sound. The closed sound is crisp and articulate with sharp and powerful cut when striking the edge. Despite the diameter they retain the crystal-clear articulation heard in the 14 X-Plosion hats. The medium top / heavy bottom ensures a super-crisp chick sound and huge projection overall. With a high-profile bell and clear crisp articulation the 16 X-Plosion hi-hat cymbals are an ideal choice for drummers that demand more power for their performances.
