080-40998370The Yamaha HHS9D is the pinnacle of Yamaha's hardware engineering, designed to offer elite-level drummers an unparalleled blend of fluid response, rock-solid stability, and customizable feel.1 Drawing from the "High-Performance" DNA of the FP9 flagship foot pedal series, the HHS9D features the same distinctive mirror-finished footboard and iconic blue accents, making it the perfect aesthetic and functional match for professional setups.2

The core of the HHS9D’s performance is its Direct Link System, which provides a 1:1 tactile connection between your foot and the cymbals.3 To achieve "smooth as butter" action, Yamaha has integrated high-precision ball bearings into the upper and lower connection points of the link, as well as the hinge sections.4 This low-friction architecture, combined with a mirror-shine polished footboard, ensures that every nuanced movement is translated into a crisp, immediate response.5

Designed for complex setups and double-bass players, the HHS9D utilizes a double-braced, 2-leg design.6 What sets it apart is the Independent Swivel Leg system, which allows the legs to be positioned practically anywhere around the base without sacrificing stability.7 When set to the integrated position markings, the stand provides a level of balance that rivals traditional 3-leg configurations, freeing up valuable floor space for additional pedals and stands.8

Yamaha has fundamentally revised the contact points for the cymbals to enhance sound quality.
Twist-to-Set Hi-Hat Clutch (LC9): This revolutionary clutch allows you to attach the top cymbal with a simple twist, eliminating the need for tedious threading.9 It features a protective plate to prevent rod damage and double lock nuts to ensure your cymbals stay secure during high-intensity performances.10

Cast Metal Cymbal Seat: Unlike standard plastic seats, the HHS9D uses a robust metal seat paired with harder felts.11 This combination produces a noticeably sharper, richer "chick" sound and offers superior durability for life on the road.
The HHS9D is designed to be "dialed in" to your specific playing style. The Alloy Tension Adjustment Dial features a clear indicator, making it easy to see and repeat your preferred spring tension.12 Additionally, the 360° Memory Lock ensures your vertical height and rotational angle are perfectly preserved every time you set up.13 For the gigging drummer, the aluminum Throw-and-Go Baseplate can be fixed in a raised position for easy transport, while integrated anti-skid spikes and large rubber feet keep the stand firmly anchored to the stage.14
