Sabian HHX Complex Promotional Cymbal Set with Free 18" Thin Crash (15005XCNP)

Drummer's Review

Drum Center of Portsmouth

Cole Paramore

Jake Ryan

r/drums

 Now of course there are many exceptions to this, there are plenty of beautiful, amazing sounding Zildjian and Sabian cymbals, and a lot of my favorite artists play Zildjian and Sabian, so I don't inherently have a problem with either of their sonic signatures or the companies themselves, they just haven't really meshed with what I'm looking for. And I feel like recently both companies, I guess in the past few years, have come out with lines that sound maybe not more vinyl-ish to my ears, but they just seem to de-emphasize the things that I haven't liked about their cymbals in the past, and what I'm talking about is like AA's and even HH's and Zildjian A's, and to a lesser extent A Customs, have all sounded sort of harsh in the mid-range or in the upper mids, and what I like a lot about these HHX complexes is that they seem to not be harsh at all, they really de-emphasize that mid-range that just comes across as abrasive to my ears, and they're still very dark with a really smooth top end, and what surprised me was that because they're called complex, usually complex or anything that's described as like esoteric or anything like that, usually means that it's going to end up sounding trashy, whether that's for better or for worse is up to you. These are not at all that, these are very smooth sounding, very like traditional sounding, but without all that harsh mid-range and with a really, really smooth top end, that's what I'm hearing at least. And they really do sound like do-anything cymbals, like you could pretty much tackle any genre with these, whereas the cymbals that I typically use are maybe a little less flexible, I go for maybe more particular sounds, but what I decided to do today is take my I guess most normal sounding setup of Minols, which is still a little bit weird

 Alright, so I know I pulled you in with a bit of a spicy title, but I just want to say right off the bat that I'm not trying to make anyone mad and that I love all cymbals from all cymbal companies, but the setup today is that I was demoing these Sabin HHX Complex cymbals for West Coast Drum Shop next door, and I was thinking to myself as I was playing them, these are probably the best sounding Sabians, or at least my favorite Sabians that I've heard in a long, long time, and just to my ears for my personal preference, although I love Sabin the company and I know they make amazing cymbals, their sonic signature has been my least favorite, just for what I'm looking for personally, until I started listening to these, so I thought it might be kind of interesting to pit these against what I normally use, which is typically vinyl, and just give sort of some thoughts and I guess a mini review on the HHX Complex line in general. Now there are plenty of vinyl cymbals that I don't like the sound of, but on average, vinyl I think has the most cymbals that sound pleasing and interesting to my ear, and on the flip side, Sabian in the past, and to a lesser extent, Zildjian has had less interesting or sounds that just don't jive as well with what I'm looking for. Now of course there are many exceptions to this, there are plenty of beautiful, amazing sounding Zildjian and Sabian cymbals, and a lot of my favorite artists play Zildjian and Sabian, so I don't inherently have a problem with either of their sonic signatures or the companies themselves, they just haven't really meshed with what I'm looking for.

Sabian HHX Complex Series Additions - Drummer's Review

 We did two different setups today with the complex cymbals and then the thins but we actually threw a medium in on this one because it blended well with this particular setup. So I don't want to get too heavy on the specs and all the changes but let me just say they completely revamped the whole thing and all the details are available on our website and of course on Sabian's website. What today is about is just what do these things sound like and my reaction is just 128% positive. These are just awesome

 What today is about is just what do these things sound like and my reaction is just 128% positive. These are just awesome. I was a huge fan of the HHX to begin with so it's kind of a loaded thing but in my opinion the line was very cluttered and not very organized. They just basically trimmed up their line quite a bit and they have made it much more easy to sort of to navigate

 It's the Bombay lacquer finish. Everybody thinks this is a wrap finish and it's a lacquer. It's absolutely gorgeous, totally at my alley. I love it

NEW Sabian HHX - Thin, Medium, Complex!

amazon.com

Hot, simmering darkness is the sound of HHX. With its 'Tone Projection' design, this 'Modern Dark' cymbal shoots its tone through the music around it. Darker, dryer, dirtier, funkier . only HHX delivers darkness with such efficiency.

I don't know what it is, but your sound is better!" It will be my little secret. :) Like Dave Weckl said, sound engineers describe the HHX Evolution cymbals as having a very high-fidelity quality. Indeed, these hi-hats can be described that way.

The "smaller cymbals" thread, in which u/TwoCables_from_OCN gave his cymbal rundown, got me thinking: I don't remember ever seeing a post here where we put up our cymbal list. It's interesting to compare and contrast the different tools for the job that different drummers bring with them. So what's your setup? Why do  you have what you have? Do any of your cymbals have a story?  [Here's mine](http://imgur.com/BASqNYA) for my primary rig, left to right:

16" Wuhan Lion china (not pictured; hadn't bought it yet). Bought used for $25 over a decade ago. I literally needed to mimic a pistol shot in a song, and this does that.

14" Zildjian K/Z hi-hats - my PDPs were a gift from an ex who never played them, and gave them to me "in the divorce," and these were the only ones of the cymbals I kept. I'd only wanted a set since I started playing.

8" Sabian AA splash, bought used with a spiderweb crack and an edge crack. It's taken another twenty years for it to crack badly enough that I'm finally thinking of retiring it.

11" A Zildjian hi-hat from the 40s?/50s?, used as a splash. Randomly came out if a friend's attic years ago. Wish I had the other one.

16" Wuhan S Series crash - I bought the S Series cymbal pack on a hunch years ago. They were sort of the "A Custom" line from Wuhan - bright and full. I got rid of the others and kept this one. By the way, metal guys, if you want a dirt-cheap anvil-like metal ride with a great sound, cruise Reverb, etc. for an S Series ride. Saw one on GC's used listings once for forty bucks.

18" Zildjian A medium thin crash - possibly the most versatile cymbal ever made. I call it the Frank's Red Hot sauce of cymbals - you can put that shit on anything. Every drummer should have one.

21" 1950s "hollow block" Zildjian A ride - I dated this cymbal for the first time just a few weeks ago, and I was shocked to learn that it was made between 1954 and 1957. I got it for free when I was a broke young drummer, from a family friend who "used to play drums back in 1818." A drummer friend of his asked if he could stash his trap case there "for a few weeks," and ten years later, after losing touch with the guy, he gave the whole thing to me to get it out of his way. This ride was in there. It is far and away my favorite ride I have ever played. If my house were on fire and I could save only one of my cymbals, this is the one I'm taking.

18" Sabian B8 Pro Chinese - bought used circa 1996 with a boom stand for $60. My favorite china I've ever heard or played - surprisingly musical for a china, let alone a B8 china. Further proof that you should trust your ears over the logo. What I recommend B8 Pro cymbals as a general rule? No. Do I think that you should run, don't walk, to get yourself an 18" B8 Pro Chinese? You bet your ass.

20" Wuhan Western Traditional medium ride - I also bought this cymbal pack on a lark. The crash and hats I gave away when I bequeathed my practice kit to my 5-year-old nephew, but this sounded better than the 20" A medium thin I had in that spot before. Yes, I ditched a Zildjian A in favor of a Wuhan, because it sounded better. Used primarily as a big ol' crash, the biggest "exclamation point" cymbal I have. Also great for Van Halen/punk-type bashing. And when played as a ride, it has a great, buttery, almost-K sound to it. 

Alas, with our teenage niece coming to live with us, these are mostly in my cymbal bag, until we buy a bigger house with room to set up my full battleship again. So lately I'm rocking [my quarantine project baby kit.](http://imgur.com/gallery/MOYINCu) The rundown:

My K/Z hats

14" Zildjian A Paper Thin crash, cut down from 15" - when I was starting out, my drummer friend Greg gave me this one, along with a no-name 20" ride to get started. He had cracked the edge, and lathed it down 1/2" all around. I have played this little guy a *lot*, and it has never come close to cracking again. *Cymbals don't have to crack, kids.*

18" Zildjian A Field - half of a marching pair, random $40 Facebook Marketplace score. A fantastic little crash-ride: I feel like Billy Martin playing this thing.

So post your pie shop! What are you running?

What's your cymbal rig?

- Sabian HHX Evolution 20": this had way too much for me. - Meinl Byzance Vintage Pure Light 22": this one was too much the other way, even though I love the sound of the cymbal and it didn't have a lot of wash, it was just too quiet and didn't manage to cut through the rest of the band. - Zildjian K Custom Dark Ride 20": same problem of being way too washy even at very low volumes.
