The ride responds well to playing quite hard, as does the bell - which is big and un-lathed. You need to catch this near its base with a well-aimed glancing blow from the stick shaft to get the stadium-best out of it. <br> | The ride responds well to playing quite hard, as does the bell - which is big and un-lathed.

Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 20" AAX Stadium ride is medium-heavy with a large un-lathed bell and is claimed to bridge "the gap between the AAX Stage and Metal rides".
If the china goes 'tang' the Stadium ride goes 'tssss'. The stick tip response is beautifully crisp, yet quite high-pitched thus thin and piercing. Somewhat disembodied from this there's a warmer and spreadier background wash.
The ride responds well to playing quite hard, as does the bell - which is big and un-lathed. You need to catch this near its base with a well-aimed glancing blow from the stick shaft to get the stadium-best out of it.
