Yamaha HHS9D Hi-Hat Stand Overview
The Yamaha HHS9D is the flagship hi- hat stand with innovative new functions. Its concept shares design with FP9 series for matching footboard and iconic blue colour accent.
High-level functionality
Thanks to its unique design, Yamaha hardware has attained a carefully balanced blend of high-level functionality, user convenience, and ruggedness.
While maintaining Yamaha’s renowned ease of use, various integrated adjustment mechanisms allow musicians to customize settings in favour of their individual vision. The overall result is a high-quality sound that takes every drummer’s performance to the next level.
- Ball Bearing and Mirror Finish Footboard Incorporated ball bearings in Yamaha’s Direct Link Sys- tem, the footboard connection points, as well as the hinge sections, ensure smooth footwork in combination with the mirror-shine polished footboard.
- Twist to Set Hi-Hat Clutch With the LC9, a new hi-hat clutch got adapted to the HHS9D, allowing clutch nut attachment with a simple twist. While the use of harder felt leads directly to significant sound improvement, the double lock nuts actively prevent unintended loosening during a performance.
- Cast Metal Hi-Hat Cymbal Seat Alongside the use of harder felt, the metal cymbal seat en- sures a sharp and rich foot-close sound. Adopted from our HS1200 model, angle adjustment nuts with anti-loosening mechanism, and cymbal cup protectors are also included. In addition, a protective plate complements the hi-hat shaft
- 360 Memory Lock The new and uniquely shaped memory clamp allows not only for vertical positioning but also for fixation in the rotational direction, ensuring a consistent position of the angle adjust- ment nut.
- Alloy Tension Adjustment Dial The adjustment dial for the spring tension is made of du- rable metal featuring an instruction mark on top, for easy identification of rotation direction even during your perfor- mance while confirming the tension strength by indicator.
- One-Touch Footboard Angle Adjustment The footboard angle is also freely adjustable via loosening only a single bolt.
- Low Position Heel and Anti-Skid Heel Spikes Just like the FP9 and highly requested by our artists, we incorporated our low-profile heel design for much smoother playability. The heel section also sports spikes similar to the FP9, enhancing the overall stability.
- Throw and Go Baseplate For easier transport, the baseplate can be fixed in a raised position. To prevent lateral movement of the footboard the connecting plate is made of high-strength metal supporting the aluminium made baseplate. Enjoy this perfect blend of strength and lightweight design.
