16-inch XSR Monarch O-Zone Crash
Like all Sabian XSR cymbals, the 16-inch Monarch O-Zone Crash is powered by Sabian’s centuries-old B20 bronze formula. But unlike others in the series, the XSR Monarch O-Zone Crash features a series of 2-inch perforations to provide a raw, faster, and more explosive bite to the dark musical attack of the aged B20. This gives the XSR Monarch O-Zone Crash wide-ranging applications: played softly, it adds subtle ornamentation with its dark, moody roar, but as it opens up, the XSR O-Zone transitions to an explosive fury characterized by a piercing, china-like trashy power. This suits the XSR O-Zone Crash for a wide range of musical styles, in addition to making it an integral part of the XSR Sizzler Stack.
16-inch XSR China
Striking sound and visuals: that is what you get with the 16-inch Sabian XSR Monarch China cymbal. With this cymbal, Sabian leverages the latest in cymbal-making technology and draws on many of the same production methods used to craft its top-tier AAX X-Plosion and HHX Evolution cymbals. Sweetwater drummers are quick to recommend this great-value, B20-fortified china cymbal. And as the foundation for the XSR Sizzler stack, the Monarch China is all the more enjoyable.
