Sabian 10805XCN 8" HHX Complex Splash Cymbal

The HHX Complex Splash from Sabian delivers a dark, expressive attack with surprising depth for an 8 cymbal. Part of the HHX line, this splash combines raw hammering with a thin weight profile to produce a quick, complex tone that cuts without harshness. The unlathed surface and hand-guided hammering create a dark, trashy character that separates this cymbal from brighter, more traditional splashes in the same size category. Sabians HHX hammering process gives the Complex Splash its signature dry response and short sustain. The cymbal responds immediately to stick contact, opening with a complex wash of overtones before decaying rapidly. At 8 diameter, it sits comfortably in hi-hat territory for quick accents and stacking applications. The B20 bronze construction ensures durability under aggressive playing, while the thin profile keeps the cymbal responsive across dynamic ranges from ghost notes to full-volume crashes.
