Only the Sabian AAX Heavy Ride has the raw output to keep up with loud guitar stacks and large, unmiked stages. The artisan-crafted Heavy Ride boasts serious penetrating power and presence, undergirded by the AAX series’ glassy partials and complex B20 undertones. Here you get a laser-focused attack, an icy bell tone, and a devastating crash, all with output to reach your listeners in the back row. Despite its power, the Heavy Ride is surprisingly nuanced. A reduced-size bell helps deliver a faster attack and purer tone. And new larger-peen hammering imparts even greater darkness and complexity to the 22" Heavy Ride’s AAX series DNA, for even more of that Sabian goodness today’s drummers demand.
