Description

XSR

  • Like all Sabian XSR cymbals, the 16-inch Monarch O-Zone Crash — part traditional crash, part FX cymbal — is fueled by Sabian's centuries-old B20 bronze formulation. But unlike others in the series, XSR Monarch O-Zone Crash features a series of perforations to impart a rawer, faster, more explosive bite to the aged B20's darkly musical attack. This gives the XSR Monarch O-Zone Crash broad applications: played softly, it adds subtle ornamentation with its dark and moody roar, but as it opens up, the XSR O-Zone transitions to an explosive fury characterized by a trashy, china-like penetrating power. This suits the XSR O-Zone Crash to a wide range of cymbal applications: accents, downbeats, grooves, stabs, and more.1
