Reviews
"The medium-weight 15" Xist hi-hats provided a pleasant middle ground. They were bright and quick while also having a big, broad wash. They fared equally well with a big band and a heavier rock band. As an experiment, I added small strips of tape on opposite edges of the top cymbal to dry out the sound, and a bit of the brightness was replaced by some nice grittiness. Additionally, when I played with the tip of the stick close to the bell, I got a great funk hi-hat sound, a la R&B master James Gadson." - Colin Woodford
"The hi-hats are warm and full-toned but had a clear edge to them. Played quietly, they sounded rich and musical; taken up a few levels of velocity their top end came to the fore, slicing deftly through in playing situations. The pair of even-diameter crashes blendtogether perfectly, opening brightly, swelling boldly and decaying harmoniously." -Â Adam Jones
"Excellent weight and feel for 15s (not overly heavy but not mushy either). The pitch is perfect, right in the sweet spot." -Â Jeremy T.
"15" Xist hi-hats offer more of that dark warmth I love about the Xist cymbal line. They are nice and sloshy when open and controlled with lots of stick definition when closed. Youâd be happy with them in just about any musical situation." -Â Nick Cesarz
