Sabian 14" XSR Hi-Hat Cymbals

The Sabian 14" XSR Hi‑Hats are a highly responsive and versatile pair that delivers accurate stick definition, boosted clarity, and strong cut, making them suitable for virtually any musical setting. Designed to perform at a professional level while remaining accessible, these hi‑hats balance control, articulation, and musical depth.

Crafted from pure B20 bronze, the XSR series represents an evolution of Sabian’s original Xs20 line. Featuring reshaped bells for faster sonic acceleration, these hi‑hats respond immediately to both stick and pedal work. The medium top / heavy bottom configuration provides a crisp, authoritative pedal “chick” and clean stick articulation, ensuring clarity even in louder or more complex musical environments.

Tonally, the XSR Hi‑Hats offer a dark, rich voice with modern definition—capable of subtle textures at low volumes and powerful timekeeping when played aggressively. Their wide dynamic range and traditional sound make them equally well suited for rock, pop, jazz, worship, fusion, and heavier styles.

With a professional sound and feel at an approachable price point, the 14" XSR Hi‑Hats are an excellent upgrade for advancing players and a dependable choice for experienced drummers seeking versatility without compromise.
