Review: "The Isos have six 1⁄2" holes drilled just beyond the heavily hammered, dimpled bell.
We immediately loved the AAX Iso crashes. The name Iso is short for isolation, the six holes partially isolating the bell from the body. The bells do indeed seem detached and resultingly clean sounding. The heavy hammering made these Iso bells our favourites, with the deepest bells on the cymbals reviewed here.
Being large they also increase volume, while the small holes only marginally shorten the overall decay. Also because of the holes the Isos have the character of thin cymbals although actually medium-thin in weight.
Unlike Sabian's now familiar O-Zone crashes, which have large 2" holes resulting in a trashier sound, the Isos have a purer brighter sound. Each of the three has a distinct personality too - the 16" is perky and fast, the 18" zings, the 20" is deep and masterful."
