When you are looking for a more articulate pair of hats with exceptional dynamic response, look no further than these Brilliant Sabian 14" AAX X-Celerator Hats. The X-Celerator hats feature a rippled Air Wave bottom that prevents airlock, and places an emphasis on bright articulation with a pronounced 'chick' sound. You should listen to these Sabian hats on the Drum Center of Portsmouth's website. They're fantastic.
