Drum Cymbal Sabian 14" XSR Monarch Hats

The XSR series was created as an evolution of the well-known Xs20 line and is made from the same high-quality B20 bronze. Thanks to improved forging and a modified dome shape, XSR cymbals have a fast sound response, wide dynamics, and a classic, balanced sound. They combine professional quality and versatility while remaining affordable for a wide range of musicians.

Sabian 14“ XSR Monarch Hats are hi-hats with a rich, dense tone and excellent control. Their natural dryness provides clear articulation and a distinct, "wooden" stick response. Thanks to the combination of a thin top and medium-weight bottom cymbal, it has balanced dynamics, precise response, and a pleasant warm opening. The XSR Monarch hi-hat has a distinctive "vintage" tone, but with modern clarity and stability of sound. It is ideal for acoustic sets, studio recording, or performances where precision and expressiveness are important. The cymbals are made of high-quality B20 bronze, a classic alloy of 80% copper and 20% tin used in Sabian's professional models. Thanks to the use of B20 alloy, this hi-hat combines durability, stability, and the characteristic “live” sound that is unique to premium cymbals.
