SABIAN 20" HHX Synergy Medium Single
The 20" HHX Synergy Medium speaks quickly with a warm, dark tone that responds immediately to strike dynamics. Large peen hammering and SABIAN's Touch Response design create a cymbal that projects clearly while maintaining control—a balance that cuts through live mix without sacrificing articulation. This single cymbal works as a crash or ride for drummers building a kit from scratch or expanding an existing setup.
Construction & Design
Cast from B20 bronze alloy in Brilliant finish, this cymbal features extensive large peen hammering that defines its tonal character. The Touch Response design enhances projection while preserving articulation, giving the HHX Synergy the ability to stay defined in a dense mix while blending seamlessly with the rest of the kit on stage.
Tone & Stage Reliability
The dark, versatile tonal balance handles anything from hard-hitting rock and pop gigs to jazz standards and pit work. Rounded articulation and quick response make this cymbal road-ready for dynamic range—it handles soft ghost notes and explosive hits with equal dependability, and it's built for night-after-night touring and session work.
