Bring crisp articulation and a bright cymbal voice to your drum setup with the Sabian B8X 13 Inch Hi Hat Cymbal Pair. The compact 13-inch diameter supports quick response, while the coordinated top and bottom cymbals produce clear sticking, definite pedal accents, and a focused sound that remains easy to hear within a full drum mix.

Bright and Defined Response

The B8X Hats produce a lively response with clean, penetrating projection. Each stick stroke has a bright attack that helps rhythmic patterns retain definition. Closing the cymbals with the pedal creates a crisp response for keeping time, adding accents, and moving between closed and open hi-hat techniques.

Medium Top and Heavy Bottom

Sabian pairs a medium weight top cymbal with a heavy bottom cymbal. This weight combination supports clear contact between the cymbals and contributes to their focused, definite character. The responsive 13-inch format works well for players who prefer a compact hi-hat feel with articulate sticking and controlled pedal action.

B8 Bronze Construction

Both cymbals are made from B8 bronze, the signature material used throughout the Sabian B8X series. The result is a bright, tonally focused voice suitable for practice, rehearsal, recording, and live drum setups. Add the pair to a compatible hi-hat stand for a clean rhythmic foundation with distinctive stick and pedal definition.
