Had stage hats before and found it a bit too loud haha! Thx man, maybe I will try aax medium little bit cheaper too so…It’s a crapshoot. HHX Evo hats can be either thick and clangy or light and smooth. I went through 4 sets of Evo hats before I found a pair that I really dig. The AAX hats are good, too—a little brighter. I like the AAX Stage hats, myself…
