6. Sabian HHX Medium Hats
Starting with a round of sparse hammering, followed by a rotation and a denser HHX hammering on top, the result is a pair of hats that are thinner, darker, and faster. A slightly larger sound cup provides more volume and power, but these hats tend to be lighter than most medium hats. The versatility with which music styles can effortlessly crossover has always been a hallmark of the HHX line, and the 14" HHX Medium Hats impress with great stick response, a solid foot, and a warm, crisp attack.
7. Sabian SA HHX Groove Ride 21"
HHX is the best of HH, AA, and AAX combined. With various material thicknesses and weight gradations (Extreme, Manhattan, Studio, Stage, Power), every drummer can find the perfect cymbal for their style. The difference from the HH series lies in the unique, large hammer strikes.
8. Meinl Pure Alloy 18 Medium Crash
The Meinl Pure Alloy 18 Medium Crash Cymbal is a versatile and balanced instrument, ideal for various musical applications. With a diameter of 18 inches and a weight of 1200 grams, it delivers a full-bodied sound that projects clearly while maintaining its musicality across different playing intensities. Made from a B20 bronze alloy, this cymbal features a rich harmonic complexity and a warm, musical character that seamlessly blends into various ensembles. The traditional hammering and lathe technique creates a complex sound profile with multiple harmonic layers, resulting in a professional sound suitable for both studio recordings and live performances. The cymbal responds well to different playing techniques while maintaining its tonal consistency across the entire playing surface. The bell produces a clear, focused ping, while the bow area delivers the main crash sound with musical articulation.
