Description

The HHX Performance Set introduces a new design approach within the HHX family, beginning with sparse hammering, followed by lathing, and finished with denser HHX hammering on top. This process results in cymbals that are quicker, thinner and darker, while maintaining the hallmark HHX versatility that allows them to transition easily between musical styles.

Sound & Feel:
  • Dark, modern HHX tonality with fast response
  • Thin crashes deliver quick attack and rapid decay
  • Ride offers clear stick definition with controlled wash
  • Hi-hats balance clarity with warmth and control
  • Highly responsive feel across a wide dynamic range
Built to Perform:
  • B20 bronze construction for depth and musical complexity
  • Multi-stage hammering enhances darkness and speed
  • Lighter weights improve responsiveness and expression
  • Smaller bells contribute to faster attack
  • Sonically matched for a cohesive, ready-to-play setup
Ideal For:
  • Drummers seeking a dark, fast and versatile cymbal set
  • Rock, alternative, fusion, pop and contemporary styles
  • Players who want quick response without sacrificing depth
  • Studio and live performance environments
  • Those looking for modern HHX tone with maximum flexibility
