Add some shimmer to your cymbal setup with the responsive tone and glassy pitch of the Sabian AAX X-Plosion fast crash cymbal.

Overview

The AAX X-Plosion fast crash delivers a super-fast response! Thinner, more responsive and with a glassier, higher pitch ensuring extremely quick response and decay, the AAX X-Plosion meets the needs and requests of today's drummers. The bright, shimmering sound is so pure, clean and concentrated that it blows through everything going on around it.

The AAX X-Plosion fast crash is great for players wanting a big, explosive response with a faster, brighter sound, said Sabian Master Product Specialist Mark Love. Its AAX Dynamic Focus design means it responds accurately at all volume levels, so it's fast and glassy, as well as is extremely versatile with bright, explosive attack, penetrating definition and total presence.

Sound

The sound of this cymbal is great! It has no ringing, just the crash sound. The crash is like an explosion, hence the name, and the decay is relatively fast, letting you play other drums/cymbals in your kit without ovepowering them. The most important thing for me was the lack of ringing. I love it when it is the pure crash sound, rather than including a ring or a hum. Love it!

Features

No accessories or extra features. Just the cymbal. That's the way it should be.

Ease of Use

How easy is it to use this product!? Ha! Just hit it! The harder the better! Yeeeha!
