These Istanbul Agop Xist marching cymbals are a fantastic choice for drum corps, parade performances, or any situation needing serious projection and a clean, bright sound. The Xist alloy provides a surprisingly articulate response for a marching cymbal, and the brilliant finish really pops under stage lights. They're built tough, but be mindful of the weight if you're playing long sets.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Xist series is noticeably brighter and more focused than the Traditionals, lacking some of the traditional’s warmer, more complex overtones.
While they offer excellent projection, the brightness might require careful mic’ing and mixing to avoid harshness in a quieter indoor setting.
Regular cleaning with a cymbal cleaner and careful handling are essential to prevent excessive spotting and tarnishing on the brilliant finish.
