The Apex series by Turkish Cymbals embodies a modern, powerful sound with clear definition. Its hallmark is the unique interplay between a polished, unlathed centre and a densely lathed edge – a striking contrast that gives every cymbal a clearly defined attack and a powerful, cutting bell. These medium to heavy cymbals combine volume, sustain and control in a balanced whole. Every Apex cymbal is made by hand in Istanbul: cast from premium B20 bronze, carefully hand-hammered and lathed – traditional craftsmanship that shapes an uncompromisingly modern sound.
Powerful, defined sound with full projection
The polished centre gives the Apex series its sharply drawn attack and maximum projection, while the lathed edge ensures a controlled, balanced crash spread. The result is an open, cutting sound that holds its own effortlessly even in high-volume setups – without losing definition. The larger, glossy bells deliver a powerful, precise bell character, ideal for driving accents and clear ostinatos. Anyone seeking an equally powerful, modern sound will also find it in the Rock Beat Raw and Ephesus series.
Musical styles and cymbals in the series
With its powerful, clearly defined sound, the Apex series is made above all for metal and rock: from hard rock and modern metal to fusion, energy-packed live performances and punchy studio productions. The series covers the entire spectrum: from the powerful Crash, through the cutting Ride and the precise Hi-Hat with a sharp chick, to the aggressive, trashy China and the explosive Splashes. This lets you build a complete, sonically homogeneous setup from a single series.

Great cymbal! Just as thrashy & crashy as I want. Cuts great through anything else!
Hi Miha, great to hear that you're enjoying your beautiful Turkish Cymbals FX China 17”! Thanks for sharing your positive experience and four 5 stars! Keep on grooving
Die Hi-Hats klingen wirklich sensationell gut, ich bin total begeistert.
Einen Stern Abzug gibt es wegen der unprofessionellen und unzureichenden Verpackung. Die Becken wurden ohne Polsterung einfach nur lieblos in einer Plastiktüte in einem viel zu großen Karton verschickt. Da beide Becken Sizzles haben, kamen die Becken entsprechend verkratzt an. So etwas darf einem Händler nicht passieren.
Lieber Daniel,
vielen Dank für deine ehrliche Bewertung!
Es freut uns riesig zu hören, dass die Snake Hi-Hats klanglich so gut bei dir ankommen – das macht uns wirklich glücklich!
Aber zur Verpackung: Du hast absolut recht, und wir möchten uns dafür aufrichtig entschuldigen. Die Becken erreichen uns aus der Türkei leider oft in genau dieser Art verpackt, und wir haben sie in diesem Fall so weiterverschickt, wie sie bei uns ankamen. Das war ein Fehler, der uns nicht passieren darf – gerade bei Becken mit Sizzles ist eine ordentliche Polsterung absolut notwendig.
Wir werden künftig deutlich mehr Sorgfalt auf die Verpackung legen und sicherstellen, dass so etwas nicht noch einmal vorkommt.
Danke, dass du dir die Zeit genommen hast, uns darauf hinzuweisen.
Thank you for your kind words! We're glad you enjoyed the Turkish Cymbals Euphonic Crash-Becken. It means a lot to us to hear that our product is meeting your expectations. We hope to see you again soon for your future perfect cymbal needs. Rock on!
