Sabian 17" HHX Complex O-Zone China Cymbal
The HHX Complex O-Zone China features the same densely hammered Complex design that brings all the tone in Sabian's Complex line, combined with full-size O-Zone holes for an ultra-fast burst of white-hot noise. It's thin-weight with raw bells, a medium-size 2" lip, and a medium-height profile, giving it a notably lower pitch than most other china cymbals.

Player Notes
Reviewers who've compared this side by side with its 19" sibling describe both as very similar in construction and sound — quick, full, warm, and rich, with a consistently mild trash factor for a china that doesn't cut brutally into a mix. Several players specifically praise how well it mics up live thanks to its moderate volume, even with the sharp O-Zone bite intact.
