SABIAN 14" AAX Medium Hats Brilliant Finish

These 14" AAX Medium Hats deliver the responsive, tight articulation required for clean hi-hat recordings and precise mix placement. The thinner-sounding weight profile and newly refined hammering pattern create a cymbal pair that captures dynamic foot control with clarity while maintaining the complex harmonic character that sits naturally in dense arrangements. Built for studio sessions and production work demanding versatility across multiple genres.

Sound & Tone Character

The smaller, raw bell design produces crispy, defined highs that maintain clarity in layered drum tracks, while the extensive hammering with large, round peen introduces harmonic complexity and a slightly darker undertone. This combination yields brighter highs and richer lows across a wider frequency band, giving you articulation that cuts through a mix without harshness and depth that anchors the drum sound in your productions.

Build & Construction

B20 Bronze material combined with the unlathed but polished bell design ensures consistent tone session to session and long-term reliability in the studio. The Medium weight pairing—with a top cymbal at 1027 grams and bottom at 1287 grams—provides the control needed for precise hi-hat articulation while maintaining the responsiveness essential for capturing nuanced dynamic performances.
