What We Think

In the ever-growing quest to design the perfect sound, Sabian has developed the XSR line of cymbals to accommodate yet another color in their growing palette of sounds. XSR picks up where the XS20 stopped. Revamped, the XSR line features thinner cymbals with a tighter lathing pattern resulting in a more consistent cymbal. Based and profiled from the popular X-plosion and Evolution cymbals, these cymbals come in at an attractive price with stellar looks. If you're ooking for a modern professional cymbal that doesn't break the bank, give the XSR line a listen.

Manufacturer's Description from Sabian

SABIAN has just announced the launch of a brand new cymbal series: XSR. Replacing Xs20, XSR will deliver unprecedented sound and performance at a price designed to fit your cymbal budget. No other series even comes close! XSR cymbals are hammered and feature enhanced profiles. Bells have been reshaped and redesigned to accelerate the overall sound of the cymbal. The result? Sound and performance well beyond what you would expect from a budget series. In fact, you can put XSR on any kit, on any stage, and not sound out of place.

The 17” XSR Concept Crash adds a whole new sound to the XSR range of cymbals. As thin − if not thinner − than the XSR Fast Crash, the Concept Crash sports a low profile bell, pinpoint lathing and a lower overall cymbal profile. The low profile bell creates a dark, fast attack. Overall, the result is very quick response and the darkest sounding cymbal in the XSR line. Drummers have asked for darker sounds in the smartly priced XSR line, and SABIAN has delivered with the XSR Concept Crash.

About Manufacturer

SABIAN was founded in 1981 when Robert Zildjian - one of the world's great names in cymbal making came to the conclusion that drummers needed a better choice of cymbals. Unsatisfied with the quality, the sound and the very relevance of the cymbals being manufactured at the time, he opened SABIAN in the small eastern Canadian village of Meductic, New Brunswick.

Since that time the SABIAN Vault has become a global center for cymbal and sound innovation. And that same SABIAN innovation has resulted in an unprecedented level of choice from the most diverse offering of cymbal design ever available. As a result, modern drummers and percussionists can choose from models that range from vintage to modern, from dark to bright, from traditional to downright eclectic.
