SABIAN 15" AAX Medium Hats

SABIAN 15" AAX Medium Hats

The SABIAN 15" AAX Medium Hats deliver a solid foot and responsive feel that translates exceptionally well in both studio and live settings. This pairing introduces a thinner-sounding weight class to the AAX line, engineered for drummers seeking crispy, articulate response without excessive mass. The smaller raw bell and innovative hammering technique produce a complex frequency palette that balances bright highs with nuanced lows.

Design & Construction

Built from B20 bronze with a traditional finish, these hats feature a distinctive small bell and exclusive dual-lathing process that creates visible, rounder peen marks across the cymbal surface. The completely new hammering style generates more visible texture, contributing to the complex tonal character while introducing a wider band of frequency response.

Tone & Performance

The bright, articulate sound profile with medium volume and short sustain cuts through live mixes without muddiness. The medium top and medium-heavy bottom pairing delivers thinner-sounding attack with more complex lows, giving you the versatility to lock in tight during high-energy sets and maintain clarity at any venue size or stage volume.
