Product Description

Warm, explosive response is fast and shimmering for increased projection and cut. A best-selling Core model, the SABIAN 16" HHX Evolution Crash is a Killer Crash! Until HHX, it was impossible to project darkness. But the dark, simmering sound, agitated bite and "Tone Projection" design of HHX makes this series more effective than others. Other cymbals may generate darkness, but HHX stirs up more simmering heat, more musical dirt, more of what drummers want to hear – and projects it. It gets you heard. And felt. HHX "Tone Projection" is an innovative design, created by the SABIAN Vault team.

With an innovative Tone Projection design shooting simmering hot, dark tone through all volumes and all styles of music, and a great selection of models, the Sabian HHX cymbal is the epitome of Modern Dark sound. This 16-inch HHX Evolution crash cymbal offers a warm, explosive response that's fast and shimmering for increased cut and projection

These cymbals inspire me to play great because they always sound great... anywhere." --Dom Famularo.
  • Play the Right Cymbals. Every cymbal has its strengths and limitations. Hitting a smaller or thinner cymbal harder and harder to get a bigger sound or make it louder isn't the answer. It wasn't designed to be so loud. So don't use small, thin cymbals for high-volume, hard-hitting playing (unless you want a contrast in your set-up... but don't hit them as hard as the rest.) For volume, power and durability, choose bigger and heavier models. And consider the brighter sounding series, like AA, AAX, PRO and Sonix. Their sounds are higher pitched and more effective at cutting through a loud band. Lower pitched series, like Hand Hammered and HHX, also offer models suitable for powering any style of music.
