The Air Norton 7 is a solid choice for 7-string players digging into modern metal, djent, or progressive rock. It’s got a strong, clear voice that really digs in on the lower strings without getting muddy, and the coil-splitting option opens up some interesting possibilities. It's a high-performance pickup at a reasonable price point.
