Dark, Bold 15" Hats — with Control for the Studio and Projection for the Stage
Whether you’re seeking studio control or stage output, Sabian’s AAX Medium Hats strike a balance between classic B20 artisan darkness and modern projection. The 15" Medium Hats yield a brighter, more cutting tone than their Thin contemporaries. This makes them at once a more cutting cymbal and a more current sound for today’s rock, pop, and metal. A reduced-size bell imparts a pure, defined pitch as you move out toward the bow and edge, resulting in a clean, cutting “chick.” The AAX series’ larger-peen hammering imparts even greater darkness and complexity for even more of that Sabian goodness today’s drummers crave.

Introducing the NEW Sabian AAX line
Sabian’s AAX cymbals have been pushing envelopes and breaking new ground since 1993. Today’s redesigned AAX lineup is leaner, meaner, and primed to cover even more ground in the drumming market. Thin, Medium, and Heavy models now allow drummers to shop by weight, pitch, and projection. A new larger-peen hammering process makes the redesigned AAX collection a fortified blend of Sabian’s class-leading darkness and complexity across the board. Whatever style of music you play, great tone awaits you with Sabian AAX series cymbals from Sweetwater.
Sabian’s B20 bronze yields depth and musicality
Sabian casts its AAX cymbals from a centuries-old recipe of copper, tin, and silver — also known as B20 bronze. This bell bronze is one of the most musical alloys on earth and, together with Sabian’s old-world artisan craftsmanship, is the secret to the 15" AAX Medium Hats’ ear-pleasing partials and complex characteristics.
