The Sabian FRX / frequency reduced series are not low volume cymbals.

Instead they work by cutting specific frequencies to create a perceived lower volume.

The frequency control is achieved using the small, specifically placed holes within the cymbals, which are designed to reduce certain frequencies.

Removing specific frequencies within the cymbal helps them to sit perfectly in the mix, so that no matter how hard you play these cymbals will never become overpowering.
