Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
Before the arrival of the HHX series, cymbals with a dark character could lack presence and bite in dense musical contexts. The HHX family established itself as a modern response to this need by combining projection and complexity. The HHX Anthology series takes this concept even further: it is positioned as a premium and creative offering from Sabian, designed to unite tradition and modernity within a single cymbal, with a particularly high level of control and nuance.
Who This Drum/Hi-Hat Is For
This Sabian HHX Anthology 14 in hi-hat is primarily aimed at intermediate to expert drummers seeking an expressive hi-hat capable of shifting from delicate, articulated playing to stronger accents without losing definition. It excels in contemporary music (modern pop, rock, funk, hip-hop, electro, fusion, indie), and more broadly on stage or in the studio whenever projection, control, and a solid, clear, and musical "chick" sound are needed.
