To make this Mini Monster, SABIAN stacked a 12” AAX Aero Splash with a 10” AA Mini Holy China to produce a loud, trashy burst of concentrated white noise in a surprisingly compact size. The Aero Splash top is all about high-end cut, blending musicality with trash — but stack it over Chad Smith's signature Mini Holy China, with its exaggerated tone profile, and the combination cuts through the music with a blistering effect that would make Chad proud. The small size lets you fit this stack into almost any setup, but there’s nothing “mini” about the volume this little monster can produce.
And, of course, you can always separate these cymbals and add one or both to your kit individually, meaning this stack offers three completely distinct sound profiles in one smart purchase.
