1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around a thin 13-inch X-Celerator top and a wide-lipped 16-inch Chinese bottom, the XSR Fast Stax is a stack cymbal with a direct, popping attack. Its Air Wave edge prevents airlock, keeping the response open for sustained sizzle and volume rather than allowing the cymbals to clamp together. Tighten the cymbal felt to rein in both elements when the part calls for a drier, more controlled effect. The wide lower lip seats the smaller top closely for a defined attack.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Adding a controllable stack effect with clear attack and adjustable sizzle to a cymbal setup.
- Players who want the cymbals to remain open instead of binding together through airlock.
