The Bosphorus XT Edition cymbals represent an exciting evolution in cymbal design, born from the collaboration with renowned drummer Robert Brian. While he loved the classic sound of the Bosphorus Traditional Series, Robert sought a more refined version to suit the demands of his new musical projects. The result is the XT Edition—a cymbal that takes the essence of the Traditional Series but redefines it for modern music. The XT Edition features a larger bell shape, which produces a more pronounced sound and a higher pitch than its Traditional Series counterpart. This design tweak enhances the cymbals' overall clarity and focus, providing greater stick definition, immediate response, and a cutting presence that stands out in any musical setting. Whether you're performing live or recording in the studio, the XT Edition cymbals deliver versatility, making them ideal for genres ranging from jazz to rock. Designed with a perfect balance of sizes and weights, the XT Edition cymbals bring out the best in your sound, offering a brighter, more defined character without losing the warmth and musicality that defines Bosphorus craftsmanship. These cymbals are the perfect choice for drummers seeking an updated, high-performance version of the classic Turkish cymbal sound. Larger bell for higher pitch and clarity Focused stick definition and fast response Clearer crashes that cut through the mix Perfect for live and studio performances Versatile for genres from jazz to rock
