AAX is quite a different cymbal and concept from the AA. It is also a B20 bronze cymbal, but that is where the likeness ends. AAX receives a jumbo hammering treatment and pinpoint lathing. The first ‘innovative’ series created by SABIAN (and the catalyst for SABIAN’s reputation for award-winning innovation) AAX features an exclusive ‘Auto-Focus Response’ feature. Tap an AAX with your finger or beat it with a stick, the response automatically focuses on the true, fundamental sound of that cymbal. Unlike other cymbals (especially before the advent of HHX, etc.) AAX responds with total accuracy at all dynamics, from low to high volumes. Other cymbals, including AA, have a ‘response threshold’. This means they sound best once they reach a certain volume. With AAX you can play the sounds you like at any volume. As for those sounds, AAX has a glassier, shimmering response that is bright, clear and focused.
