The Istanbul Agop Xist Dry Dark Brilliant 17 Inch Hi–Hats represent a masterful fusion of Turkish craftsmanship and contemporary cymbal design. These distinctive hi–hats produce a low–pitched, dark, and trashy tone that cuts through any mix with their bright and pointed attack. The unique pairing of a very thin top cymbal with a medium–heavy bottom creates exceptional dynamic contrast, making them incredibly versatile across multiple musical styles.
What sets these hi–hats apart is their slightly increased weight compared to the original Xist Dry Dark model, providing enhanced volume and projection without sacrificing their characteristic sound. The top cymbal doubles as an explosive yet dry crash when used independently, while both cymbals can be stacked together for alternative sound textures. Crafted in Turkey using premium B20 bronze alloy, these cymbals showcase the renowned Xist Series’ commitment to combining modern production techniques with traditional handcrafting methods.
The brilliant finish and 17–inch size make these hi–hats a standout addition to any drum kit, offering clear articulation that suits everything from studio recording to live performance. Their construction ensures both durability and exceptional musicality, backed by Istanbul Agop’s reputation for quality cymbal manufacturing.
