The Xanthos-Cast series by Turkish Cymbals stands for powerful medium-heavy cymbals with a complex tonal depth. The completely unlathed surface and the intensive hammering make this series special: the sound stays dark, dry and short, without losing any energy. Every Xanthos-Cast cymbal is made by hand in Istanbul from premium B20 bronze.
Dark, dry sound with a powerful response
The powerful response, combined with pronounced overtones, makes these cymbals the first choice for controlled power: the hi-hat delivers a dark chick with a powerful presence, the crash a dark attack with full projection, and the ride impresses with a dark wash and an excellent bell response. The Flat Bell Sizzle sets a striking accent with its deep character and maximum projection. Anyone seeking similarly dark, unlathed cymbals will also find them in the Raw Dark and Rock Beat Raw series.
Musical styles and cymbals in the series
With its powerful, characterful expression, the Xanthos-Cast series is ideal for rock, progressive, metal and blues. The series includes a Crash with a dark attack, a Flat Bell Sizzle with a deep character, a Hi-Hat with a powerful chick, a Ride with a dark wash, as well as a Splash as a dark-polished accent. A series for drummers who seek controlled power with a characterful expression.

Vielen Dank 🤗
Hallo Rolf, vielen Dank für deine 5 Sterne und die netten Worte! Es freut mich sehr, dass dir das John Blackwell Signature Ride so gut gefällt. Viel Spaß beim Spielen, und wenn du mal Fragen hast oder etwas Neues suchst, melde dich gern bei mir.
Eine interessante Mischung aus Splash und Mini Flat Ride. Eine Bereicherung für mein Set Up.
Hallo Simon,
vielen Dank für die fünf Sterne und für das Foto dazu. Die Beschreibung trifft es genau: Die Satellite Flat Bell ist irgendwo zwischen Splash und Mini Flat Ride angesiedelt, und genau diese Zwischenwelt macht sie so spannend. Schön zu hören, dass sie dein Set bereichert.
Really dark, loud hihats, works good as secondary hats for blastbeats when set not too washy.
Thanks for the order, and for this genuinely useful feedback. Dark and loud with control over the wash is exactly the Kurak character, and hearing that it holds up for blastbeats as secondary hats is a great data point for anyone in that scene. Enjoy them!
