Meinl Byzance Traditional Cymbals
Traditional finish cymbals have a completely lathed surface and a warm, smooth and rich sound. The harmonic spectrum has slightly dominant mids.
Meinl 14″ Byzance Equilibrium Hi-hat Cymbals B14EQH
ITEM NO. B14EQH
Description
Similar to China of the same name, Matt Garstkas Equilibrium Hihat offers a unique balance between attack, sound, response and volume. Different areas of the pelvis were turned off to produce a particularly bright sound, while others remained unprocessed to increase the attack and bite. The dry character of the Equilibrium Hihat, however, is due to the sandblasting in other areas of the pool.

The Byzance Foundry Reserve collection is a limited selection of cymbals that showcases the stunning, sonically rich works of art that our cymbal smiths create with layers of tonality and nuance; however, that is only half of the beauty, as they are visually striking from the one-of-a-kind hand-hammered marks. The extra hammering creates many deep craters across the surface. When this hammering is coupled with the fully lathed top and bottom, it produces a clear, dry stick-attack note over a lush bed of low undertones – otherwise known as “the roar.”
